<em>Skepticism implies doubts about a plausible proposition.</em><br />
<strong><em>Current global warming alarm hardly represents a</em></strong><br />
<strong><em>plausible proposition. Twenty years of repetition and</em></strong><br />
<strong><em>escalation of claims does not make it more plausible.</em></strong><br />
<em>Quite the contrary, the failure to improve the case over</em><br />
<em>20 years makes the case even less plausible as does</em><br />
<em>the <strong>evidence from climategate and other instances of</strong></em><br />
<strong><em>overt cheating.</em></strong></p>
