    Your values make good sense to me, but I have some questions, one very irreverent (Why do you live with those guys?) and others more on topic. Is it the warming itself that you seriously question, or rather just the cause? If you question the warming, are you aware of how much work has gone into these measurements, and how consistent the results are? As for the cause, I can understand doubt about climate models. But the basic greenhouse mechanism is well understood, as are the major feedback mechanisms. Even if this is not completely satisfying, does this not make it very likely that anthropomorphic CO2 is responsible?
