Fish, Visitors, and Guestbloggers

bOingbOing has Charles Platt guestblogging this week. After a WalMart-fellating post earlier this week, he's decided to use the platform of bb to promote Climate Change Denialism.

That's not funny, just annoying.

What's funny is the near-perfect Cory/Xeni chain-combo (starting with this post) linking excellent Climate Change sources, empirical evidence, analysis, and more.

When I talk about Mr. Doctorow, it's often to disagree on IP issues, but I have to thank him for responding to the pests in his own yard.

So you've joined the crowd in the terminology switchover? Seems like only yesterday it was "Global Warming"...

Anyways, the Mann 2008 report that Doctorow focuses on is thoroughly torn apart at Climate Audit (http://www.climateaudit.org/?p=3967), just like the rest of Mann's work. That's a start, anyways.

Most importantly, I find the term "Global Warming Denier" or "Climate Change Denier", in conscious imitation and analogy to Holocaust deniers, incredibly offensive.
