I was talking relevant scientists... which is not to imply all fields are
relevant. But this is just side issue nonsense from you.

Nobody suggested you should.

That is a good example of people speaking of "experts" who are not. Sure.

There is simply no doubt that there is near universal consensus among
relevant scientists about man-made climate change.

On this off-topic insult of yours designed to change the topic because you
know you have no backing... no, not really. I could not care less about your
side issue circus. 

> Ask anybody who's ever met a psychology kook.

In other words even on your side issue circus insults you have nothing of
value to add.

In any case, if you want to actually educate yourself on man-made climate
change here are some good sources:

NASA: <http://climate.nasa.gov>

NOAA: <http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/climate-information>

Skeptical Science: 
<http://www.skepticalscience.com/empirical-evidence-for-global-warming.htm>
(not as scholarly but directly addresses many of the absurd myths people
push to deny it)

National Academy of Sciences:
<http://nas-sites.org/americasclimatechoices/?p=1281>

Royal Society and the US National Academy of Sciences:
<http://goo.gl/nII2om>

A bunch of scholarly articles:
<http://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=climate+change+evidence>

And if you need more, here is a large list of scientific organizations which
have backed the idea... the idea that *all* are involved in some world-wide
conspiracy where they can fight the massive wealth of the oil industry and
others who would love for it to *not* be true is absurd, to say the least.

We could look at each and every one of their websites... and look at all the
data they show. And then we can balance it with your denial... for which you
have literally *nothing* to back it. Not a thing. Not a reason or a way this
grand conspiracy could be pushed.
