<p>After I posted this graph, alarmists started screaming that &#8220;<em>my graph</em>&#8221; was unrealistic, and that experts had written papers explaining why it would take much longer. David Appell went so far as to say this</p>

<p>Unbelievable stupidity on display. I post alarmist&#8217;s useless forecasts and alarmist&#8217;s useless data, and they come back with references to some obscure paper explaining why their own data and forecasts are useless. Didn&#8217;t the experts above read <em>the paper</em>?</p>
<p>Then David Appell accuses me of <em>distortion</em>. No David, you are just incapable of rational or objective thought. Your team wants to have it both ways. They want to be able to make stupid alarmist forecasts, and the same time pretend to be doing serious science.</p>
