Weather Channel founder wants to sue Al Gore
jhocking:
Just saw this on another forum, posted by a fellow who is clearly not a fan of Al Gore:

I was struck by the part about there being 30,000 scientists, and supporting the scientists are 9,000 PHD researchers. Wait, so if only a fraction of the "scientists" have doctorates, what exactly is their definition of a scientist? I mean, is every tom-dick-and-harry with a vested interest in the global warming debate considered a scientist?
Given that bit of hand waving, I'm rather leery of the "9000 PHd researchers" bit too. I mean, I'm sure they really do have 9000 people with PHds lined up, but PHds in what?

So, they want to sue someone because they are beeing ignored? Gee, i wonder why the rest of the world tends to think of the US in a certain way...

Man I don't get people who can't understand what climate change means.
Chesire Cat:
A scientist is someone who professionally does science. You dont need a degree to practice science, hell if I started making soap myself to sell, I could label myself a scientist. So frankly I dont think its fair to try to burn the Weather Channel for their use of Scientist. The stupid part is these people deny Global Warming. I mean, shit even if global warming doesn't exist, and just the natural ebb and flow of the worlds climate. I mean, how many mass extinctions and stuff comes from Ice Ages and Sunny-Beach Ages.

I love how he says "We've been trying to get a debate going."
There's already been a debate. You've been proven wrong, and consequently lost.
