Speaking of poorness of comments, I guess in this matter you can rely on how they are upvoted. No offense, just see for yourself..
Flipping it over on me doesn't change the fact that your comment was poor. There are also obvious counterarguments to your point that popularity means you're right but I don't need to go into them.
Dear Mr Brain Police, I did back up my point in another subthread. You were busy here with proving how silly I am so you haven't noticed.
Again, please digest a feedback you're receiving (votes!) and rethink.
There's certainly no need to be criticizing people for that usage, since there's no possibility of confusion; we're always talking about modern climate change.
Not at all. The term "climate change" didn't come into the discussion until the temperature data started to diverge from the predictions. The terminology change was one of many things done to "hide the decline".
