Bill O'Reilly Says He Found a Solar Installer | ThinkProgress

“There is a legitimate guy on long island. He’s going to come over and give me a price and I’m going to report back to you. Because I don’t want to be dependent on OPEC [OPEC generates the electricity for O'Reilly's house?!] and I don’t think anybody does,” he said.

 Aside from the fact that O’Reilly (like all too many people) gets solar electricity mixed up with oil, it’s a positive sign that he’s at least making the effort to get a quote.

I'm not sure how to argue against this point - it appears to imply that there is no statistically significant trend in the global temperature record over the past few years.

Best wishes,

John L. Daly’s message to Mike Mann and The Team | Watts Up With That?

Mann’s theory simply does not stack up. But that was not the key issue. Anyone can put up a dud theory from time to time. What is at issue is the uncritical zeal with which the industry siezed on the theory before its scientific value had been properly tested. In one go, they tossed aside dozens of studies which confirmed the existence of the MWE and LIA as global events, and all on the basis of tree rings – a proxy which has all the deficiencies I have stated above.
