This will come as a surprise to the climatologists who disagree with
you. Perhaps you could link to some evidence supporting your claim,
and I can pass it along.

Anyone that believes in AGW is either a fool or disingenuous. In either case
no amount of evidence would sway them one way or the other.

It's obvious you are quite confused. Let's consider just a few of the
problems with the above statements.

First of all, the highest percentage of "believers" in climate change
in any collection of people would have to exist among climatologists,
the group demonstrably most knowledgeable on this subject, and one
most people would be willing to agree is not composed entirely of
fools and liars. Of course one might claim there is a huge conspiracy
among them or they're all just looking for grant money, but those
arguments would just make someone look pathetic and paranoid.

Additionally, as there has developed over time a virtually complete
consensus on climate change/anthropogenic forcing among these
scientists it is clearly the case that the evidence is what has swayed
their opinions. The opinions of those who are not climate scientists
but have studied the evidenced have, for the most part, followed suit.

Next time you are challenged to present support for your claims try
not to take the low road, just admit you don't know what you're
talking about.

Besides - "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence". If you
think there is any you might like to pass that on.

Why don't you start with this - http://www.ipcc.ch/pdf/assessment-report/ar4/wg1/ar4-wg1-spm.pdf
- it's the IPCC's Summary for Policymakers and it's just chock full of
that evidence stuff. Of course, if reading all 18 pages hurts too
much, go chew on the graph on page 11, the one called "Global and
Continental Temperature Change." Then come back here and tell us fools
and liars what we need to know to set us straight.
