The problem I have with Ian's book is that he claims every scientific argument ever used to show that humans change climate is wrong
(some 2000+ of them)

No doubt some are. The early climate change science used some very dodgy data indeed.

But in 2009 when a body representing the US departments of Defence, Commerce, Energy, NASA, National Science Foundation, Smithsonian...well almost all of them...still says "Huston, we have a problem"

I tend to believe them rather than a retired Adeliade Uni Teacher (of mining no less!) or invoke a conspiracy.

Most of Plimer's claims have been rubutted here http://www.frogworth.com/stuart/blog/?p=88
