Horsepuckey. Back in the 1970s, the 'panic du jour' was global
COOLING.


Thanks for confirming that your knowledge is based on nothing more
than
media speculation, which DID do write-ups on the subject in the 1970s.

...but that wasn't what the science was telling us. If you think
that
you have a SCIENTIFIC reference for claims of global cooling in the
1970s, feel free to go to the following web page:

and tell William about it. He'd be interested in knowing about it.

You didn't bother looking at the link I gave to William Connolley's web
page, did you?

The Rasool and Schneider paper (from Science in 1971) is already
discussed there. I'm not surprised that you mention it though - I figured
someone would.

I'll bet you haven't read the Rasool and Schneider paper, either. It
does NOT predict a global cooling. It does some speculating, but that's
about it. Connolley's web page has the full citation, unlike the opinion
peice that is at the discover.com site.
