Climate Denialism on HN?
jcnnghm: Having read through some of that leaked code, I can safely say that if they are as bad at climate science as they are at programming, we have nothing to fear.  In particular, the assertions that some have made that the "artificial correction for decline" code is commented out, and was only used for testing, is troubling.  Test code intertwined with the production code is a recipe for disaster.And doesn't the phrase Climate Denialism have kind of a religious bent?  If Climate Change Skeptics are deniers, then Climate Change Proponents are Global Warming Alarmists.  Is there really a need to cloud things with name calling.And really, are people actually skeptical that the climate is changing, or are they skeptical that's it's changing so severely and destructively that we need to put a trillion dollars on hot.Hasn't the climate always changed?  Wasn't their a 1,000 foot deep, 20,000 sq m lake in Utah, and a land bridge between North America and Western Europe?  Is this the one right temperature?  By what measure?
