Good work, Springer. Your cut is a dollar a year, and all you can steal.

Carry on, Judith Curry. Methinks that some time in the future when you’re able to add it all up, you’ll discover you’ve gained far more than you’ve lost by reason of your courageous position re climate change. I’d say much of that…to further speculate…has to do with your highly evolved personality..which normal people (as distinct from most climate alarmists.) are instinctively drawn to.
Been a privilege to watch you these last 5 years.

Or is it 4 years? All I know is I had more hair when Climate Etc. began.

You can’t use thermodynamics to solve the climate problem if you ignore information on the heat source.

When I first glanced at this, it read “The title of the show is Green Tranny”

Dear Dr. Curry,
I don’t know how often you’ve made the trip to Europe, but if i may provide one unsolicited travel tip:
The trip over is much worse for the body clock than the trip back. Sleep on the plane if you possibly can. On the day you arrive, resist the temptation to take a nap in the afternoon. Take a walk, visit a cafe, have a beer or glass of wine with dinner, and try to go to bed about your usual time. With a little luck you’ll sleep through the night and be in sync with the time zone the next day. If you have a nap in the afternoon though, you will be wide awake at 2 am for the next 3 days.
Going back is easy. You wake up earlier than usual for a few days, and can get lots of stuff done before breakfast!
Have a great trip,
Ken

Looking at Judith’s schedule, it’s no wonder that she doesnb’t have time to do scientific research any more.

Seriously Don, you’ll like this. How’d I post an image? It worked on my blog but not here.
*confused*

Is the photo from a web site? If so click on the image then copy and paste the resultant URL.
If not, where is the image located?

The badge looks right, but he’s way too short. More like James Garner my favorite actor in my favorite movie:
Jimmy passed away recently. Now I watch it with a little sadness.

Comment on What matters (and doesn’t) in the G7 Climate Declaration by AK
Here’s what matters: polar bears are so threatened by “global warming” that they’re turning around and threatening dolphins:
Thanks, global warming: Now polar bears are devouring dolphins
Sorry for the above image. But you know who’s even sorrier? The white-beaked dolphin that’s getting gnawed on like a meat popsicle. Yikes.
According to Norwegian scientists, we likely have climate change to thank for the ghastly sight. In a paper recently published in Polar Research, they report that polar bears — who usually dine on seals — have expanded their palates to include dolphins as well, which has never been documented before.
It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the way people are looking more closely at polar bears, trying to prove they’re threatened.

Scott,
Many people who make the same argument as you are making do’t consider time frames. Politics and beliefs change. They can be changed by good leadership and information. However, physical constraints cannot. The relevant points are clear: Nuclear is:
1. the safest way to generate electricity
2. effectively unlimited fuel supply
3. potentially a huge cost reduction over time (the fuel is 20,000 times more energy dense when used in an LWR and up to 2 million times more energy dense a breeder reactor
4. If we want to greatly reduce global GHG emissions the world will have to move to nuclear for electricity, heat and for producing unlimited transport fuels (e.g. from sea water).
5. Renewables cannot do the job.

Willard,
You wrote –
“You can’t deny that my prediction wasn’t useful!”
I can deny whatever I want. However, in this case I won’t deny what you said.
Your “prediction” was, indeed, not useful. I would go so far as to say it scaled the heights of non usefulness, if that suits you.
If you can come up with a useful prediction, I would be even more impressed.
You also wrote –
“I hope you don’t wish to imply that aircraft manufacturers are just like fortune tellers.” Your hopes may well be dashed. I need more information, obviously.
However, the Douglas aircraft company may have made predictions which lead to its demise with about the same, or possibly less, accuracy than an experienced fortune teller. Even an inexperienced fortune teller, such as I, can occasionally do better than aircraft manufacturers in many areas.
How often does a manufacturer blame adversity on unforeseen circumstances? Or possibly, an aircraft manufacturer looks into the future, and does something it knows will bring misfortune on it?
No one can foresee the future. The best one can do is make assumptions. The Sun will come up tomorrow. The drought will break. My country will win the war. My savings will be safe.
And so on. You may believe differently.
