   It would only be fair to include any prognosticator.

   Climate “scientists” generally make forecasts/predictions far enough in the future that they’ll never be held to account.

   Serrezze, the NCAR ice guy, has come dangerously close to predicting his own failure re: ice-free Arctic. Skating on thin ice, you might say

     Well he is a hippie so he is probably short of a few brain cells.

   What about weather forecasters? Any weather forecast beyond 3 or 4 days out is basically fortune telling.

   Climate scientists should be even more culpable, since their purported victims extend to the global population, and potentially kill millions due to starvation and cold. Their penalty, if their ice-free predictions do not come to pass, for example, I suggest should be something like 15 years in the electric chair. Some might think this too harsh, but I feel the punishment should fit the crime.

   As is common in the AGW world, they only need to add error bars to their predictions that are wide enough to cover all eventualities and they are covered no matter what happens.

     Isn’t it fun that the error bars are wider than the predicted change. Gotta love global warming.
