"So what? Your argument that sometimes the consensus is wrong is completely tiresome, and proves absolutely nothing. Hell, it doesn't even suggest anything, much less prove it.
There are also lots of consensuses that have not been wrong. It doesn't prove that every consensus is correct, either. It's simply irrelevant, and such irrelevant arguments are typical from global warming deniers."
I didn't say I could PROVE anything. I have consistently said that the global warming crowd can't PROVE anything either, and that taking a nose count doesn't prove or disprove anything!
Your argument is a perfect example of why your devout belief in global warming is untrustworthy.
That a consensus neither proves nor disproves a THEORY is NOT irrelevant--it is the heart of the argument here! And it's a point in my favor!
