Wow! Here is proof that "professor" Warmley never reads the SPAM he
posts! After all his assertions that global warming is caused not just
by CO2 but by the man-made portion of it, he now cuts and pastes a piece
letting the cat out of the bag that water vapor is the primary green
house gas responsible for at least 90% of the earth's green house effect!
Talk about foot in mouth!
