"In 2005, James Annan offered to take Lindzen, the MIT meteorologist, up on his bet that global temperatures in 20 years will be cooler than they are now. However, no wager was ever settled on because Lindzen wanted odds of 50-to-1 in his favour. This meant that for a $10,000 bet, Annan would have to pay Lindzen the entire sum if temperatures dropped, but receive only $200 if they rose.
“Richard Lindzen’s words say that there is about a 50 percent chance of [global] cooling,” Annan wrote about the bet. “His wallet thinks it is a 2 percent shot. Which do you believe?”

Really I do know you're not very well educated but to fall for such simple propaganda? Sheesh.
Your source is "Doug's Darkworld".....
Is "Doug's Darkworld" a refereed journal?
Just for the record I've been citing Professor Lindzen and Professor Easterbrook.
Sasguru cites "Doug" whoever he is.
That depends upon the quality of the blog, Shirley?Using links to blogs to prove an argument is getting tiresome
Does a report of someone not taking a bet negate evidence against global warming?This Dr. Lindzen?
