I for one would agree with Tudor wholeheartedly.

You just quote from some expert or web site and call anyone who disagrees with you an idiot, which not infurriates me but everyone else who reads this news group. I can see why you behave as you do because its the way you behave and survive on the global warming group which is very hostile. If you just toned it down a bit like you do when you aren't talking with your global warming hat on you might win a few people over. The climate will keep on changing no matter what we do or how nasty we are with each other.

'Behaved'. I'll post exactly the way I wish, Bruce, but thank you for your concern.

That's the problem. Not the content but the style. "It ain't what you say, it's the way that you say it" etc etc. I reckon I could talk Lawrie round to a more rational view of AGW given a couple of pints of Triple X Old Fart, and he wouldn't be in the least offended, but no-one is going to give an inch if they're hectored, shown contempt and called an idiot.
