Will there be consequences to the Global Warming foolishness?
More on Gore’s being full of hot air (AP):
A top hurricane forecaster called Al Gore “a gross alarmist” Friday for making an Oscar-winning documentary about global warming. “He’s one of these guys that preaches the end of the world type of things. I think he’s doing a great disservice and he doesn’t know what he’s talking about,” Dr. William Gray said in an interview with The Associated Press at the National Hurricane Conference in New Orleans, where he delivered the closing speech…
Gray, an emeritus professor at the atmospheric science department at Colorado State University, has long railed against the theory that heat-trapping gases generated by human activity are causing the world to warm. Over the past 24 years, Gray, 77, has become known as America’s most reliable hurricane forecaster…
Gray’s statements came the same day the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change approved a report that concludes the world will face dire consequences to food and water supplies, along with increased flooding and other dramatic weather events, unless nations adapt to climate change.
(We discussed the dopey yet “authoritative” Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change previously.) Our question: when the earth does just fine over the next twenty years, will any of the Global Warming alarmists express embarrassment over their their foolish, dire predictions?
UPDATE
John Hinderaker has a nice exegesis of the story on Gray from the standpoint of MSM bias. Ace’s discussion of similar issues is a tad more ribald.

Great post! What’s interesting is that there are a lot of scientists where Gray came from, but to read the daily newspapers you’d never know it.
p.s., And consider this a manual trackback since a real trackback errored out with a “security word required” message.
