Hi De,

Thanks for asking. Nicely. I guess I didn't explain my thinking as 1-2-3 well as I thought I had. ;-/

To start with, notice I didn't say a word about HOW MUCH the "warming" would be. I did try to make very clear I didn't think it was anything worthy of being in the top 99 of humanities problems to be addressed with "government".

So, let's say you light one candle and burn it for 1 minute. Congratulations: you've now contributed to "man-made global warming". What else shall we talk about? The point is, the heat was sequestered, a wo/man released it: man-made global warming.

As I said, we were overdue for another ice-age. An ice-age is clearly not on the horizon. So a good hypothesis might be that man-made global warming has forestalled another ice age. An ice age would cause a LOT of extinction. So maybe man-made global warming is a really, really good thing??

Re: “You can't burn a billion years worth of stored sunlight (which is what oil and other hydrocarbons are) in 150 years and not dump a monstrously large amount of kcals into the environment. Physics says there is man-made global warming. Anyone who can't understand that is probably mentally impaired.”
I must be mentally impaired - because I sure don't understand what you just said.

Per M.I.T., "A total of 173,000 terawatts (trillions of watts) of solar energy strikes the Earth continuously. That's more than 10,000 times the world's total energy use."

Since your understanding is so much greater than mine, not to mention this M.I.T. author's, please explain why our view - that humans release SOME heat into the atmosphere, but the amount is insignificant next to even the tiniest of changes in solar activity - is wrong. Humanity's energy release is certainly not enough to constitute a problem that we EVER need to worry about.

Now, if you want to argue that the accumulated CO2 emissions are amplifying the effect of solar radiation, then you might be on to something. But your posted argument (and the implied insult to anyone who disagrees) isn't that at all. So, challenge accepted. Why are you right ... and M.I.T. and I wrong?
