Just watched Black Sky, Race For Space, fascinating.

Climate Change :-

"I put myself in the (Those who fear expansion of Government control) group, and do not hide the fact that I have a clear bias on [ Anthropogenic global warming (AGW)]. My bias is based on fear of Government expansion and the observation of AGW data presentation fraud - not based on financial or any other personal benefit. I merely have found that the closer you look at the data and alarmists’ presentations, the more fraud you find and the less you think there is an AGW problem... For decades, as a professional experimental test engineer, I have analyzed experimental data and watched others massage and present data. I became a cynic; My conclusion – “if someone is aggressively selling a technical product whose merits are dependent on complex experimental data, he is likely lying”. That is true whether the product is an airplane or a Carbon Credit."

Nice find, Mike.

Burt's a smart lad!

smart, but he himself admits he's no climatologist.

it's like asking a brain surgeon about washing machines. 

climate change isn't rocket science

But it is being analysed by scientists...

which is what his point is all about.
