Coming up with a list of people who agree with your position. When I heard Sean Hannity on his Tuesday radio program bemoan the proposed $400-500 million dollar funding of climate change research for NASA by claiming that 650 scientists don't believe there is any climate change, I knew something was amiss. Searching for the source of his claim, I was led to (no surprise) the government sponsored website of Oklahoma Senator James Inhofe.
The UN global warming conference currently underway in Poland is about to face a serious challenge from over 650 dissenting scientists from around the globe who are criticizing the climate claims made by the UN IPCC and former Vice President Al Gore.
Look, Discovery Institute publishes a list of people who dissent from evolution. The NCSE has published an even bigger list of biologists named Steve who accept evolution. Take home message: lists don't matter, facts do.
And by the way, the 650 scientists ... turns out to be significantly less than that.
