That guy seemed to have been pretty spot on in his assessment.

Did he perhaps mention that the earth had stopped heating? Your chat was about a year after Bob Carter first wrote it in a newspaper article, where he was subsequently roundly condemned as a nutter the world over by Climate Scientists who were then in their Pause/Hiatus-is-Heresy phase, before they become believers last year.
