Much has been made of the list of 400 skeptical scientists on James Inhofe's blog.
"Over 400 Prominent Scientists Disputed Man-Made Global Warming Claims in 2007"
http://epw.senate.gov/public/index.cfm?FuseAction=Minority.SenateReport#report
Notice the report says "disputed", but it doesn't mention how they disputed it. Well, it wasn't with scientific data. Examples from the first few names:
"Denis G. Rancourt...believes the global warming campaigns do a disservice to the environmental movement."
"George Kukla...expressed climate skepticism in 2007"
"B.P. Radhakrishna...expressed climate skepticism in 2007"
This is just a list of scientists in various fields (many with little relation to climate science) who expressed some sort of skepticism with regards to some aspect of anthropogenic global warming.
There is no data in this report. It is no more than the skeptical equivalent of "consensus".
Where's the data? I thought skeptics hated "consensus".
