Mark Stoval:
What would make them see that CO2 don't do what they think it does?

James McGinn:
I don't think you understand the nature of the problem, Mark.  You are suggesting that they (the luke warmers in this instance) have 1) thought about CO2 and 2) that they have a well-defined conceptual model of it and 3) that they are cognitive of this well-defined conceptual model.  

The reality is that all three of these are wrong.  The reality is, 1) they haven't thought about CO2 2) They do not have a well-defined conceptual model, and 3) they are not cognitive of the fact that they do not have a well-defined conceptual model.  

This is a problem with the atmospheric sciences in general.  And it is inclusive of many different issues in the atmospheric science, CO2 forcing, Thermodynamics, convection model of storm theory.  And, depending on the issue, no faction is immune to these shortcomings. Surely you have noticed, for example, some of the absurd conversations that have taken place between Joe Postma and people that have tried to explain to him that colder objects don't have the ability to sense they are the colder objects and turn off their outflow of EME.

People have blind spots.  And they tend to collectivize with others that share their blind spots.  

I would suggest to all to be less concerned about the blind spots of other and more about their own.

The mother of all blind spots involves H2O, not CO2:
Current models of water maintain over 60 anomalies.  That is 60 as in a six with a zero behind it.  That is 5 to 10 times more anomalies than any other substance.

   Translation: James McGinn has a problem with the atmospheric sciences
   in general because of his lack of education in meteorology.

and in more fundamental domains like
physical chemistry, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics.

You simpletons just list categories and think that is an argument.
