Apparently, climate denier "Steven Goddard" is still attracting a following.  In a recent LinkedIn debate [1]. Goddard's Wordpress blog gets used as the basis for a discussion.  I tried to point out that Goddard is a fraud.  However, my reply was never "approved".

I have since made a second attempt at posting my reply.  Its approval is still pending (as of ~3:40pm on 2/16/2013).

In the meantime, in order to set the record straight, I am posting my reply here, on the Nation Builders, in full.  Enjoy!

To all:

Apparently, it isn't well known that...

(1) "Steven Goddard" is a pseudonym for who-knows-who

See http://www.desmogblog.com/steven-goddard

(2) Goddard has actually *retracted* (in one place) the claim that he nonetheless continues to let stand on his Wordpress blog

See http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2008/08/25/203013/a-new-olympic-re...

(3) In short, he's a climate crank who hides his identity for some reason, even as his ideas have been thoroughly refuted by actual scientists

See http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2008/08/north-pole-no...

Moral of the story? Check the facts. The web is FULL of out-dated information.

_@ Rob Ricket_:
Perhaps Anthropogenic Climate Change is an invalid theory, as I gather you believe. But, IF IT IS, please be advised that the contribution that started this discussion contributes ZERO, NADA, ZIP, against the theory of AGC.

For my part, I have no more doubt that AGC is correct than I have that the theory of plate tectonics is correct. The evidence is IN.
