The "skeptics" of global warming completely contradict each other.
Some say the temperature record is bad. Others accept it, but say we're not really warming. Others say that the temperature record and warming is real, but it's caused by the Sun. Or cosmic rays. Or something else Still others say we can't possibly figure out WHAT it's caused by.
Richard Lindzen, perhaps the most reputable skeptic, disagrees with all of the above. He says the temperature record is good, that we are warming, that models work, but that we're going to be saved by a magic feedback from clouds, not yet observed.
For me, believing in any one of the skeptics is just too improbable. Not only do you have to disbelieve the majority of the scientific community, you have to disbelieve the majority of the skeptics too.
