The behaviour is attrocious. Your behaviour is attrocious Dana. I believe that this question is very unkind and you are better than this. A simple factual explanation would have been much better, even if it was only to state that 'the individuals question can't be answered until this paper is published' and a promise to answer when you DO have sight of the relevant papers. You have done a fantastic job giving current research and trying to discuss that research. For that you deserve a pat on the back. However, the next time you decide to ask a question like this Stop! for a few minutes and think of the wider audience that read but don't answer your questions. Give the truth, evidences, links, less opinions, more truths, explanations and even more facts if that is needed to help people understand the truths. Some people don't understand as easily as others, but do understand eventually if the teacher is patient and consistent. If you ridicule them, like in this question, they will just stop listening as will many who read but don't answer. Stop ranting, return to informing. ‘What would you call this kind of behaviour?’

He admitted he's a "redneck" which in common parlance refers to someone in a small town or agricultural area with no formal education. I think few if any of the regular deniers on this forum have formal education, though some do. People have great difficulty understanding the scientific processes and how conflicts in scientific studies get worked out. Few have have even read journals or even understand why they are so important. But the thing that amazes me about how stubborn-minded some people are, is that they will cite an expert as proof as though they believe the expert is someone credible, but then when it is pointed out that the expert is warning them that AGW is real they don't admit to changing their understanding. You would think they'd at least be curious about why a guy like Maue is so certain AGW is real. I personally don't agree with your answer that just because Maue is still pursuing his PHD his work lacks credibility. A great amount of scientific progress has been accomplished by grad students. But everyone should understand that Maue does not question the established belief in AGW, he just is reporting that hurricanes might not be affected in ways that the majority believe. The theory is well accepted, but observations are sketchy. Even over 30 years, hurricanes do not present enough data points to establish a significantly reliable trend. Look, be kind.

Don't put others down, it was you who was looking for something that was not there in that case, and you did not bother reading data and methods. Shame shame, another blotch on "scientists". Keep it up though, you and the other activists have convinced another 20% of the nation AGW is nothing to worry about.

I can understand why you would be sensitive to this because increased hurricane damage is a primary scare threat to mobilize the masses.
