Sorry for being curt, but your first paragraphi is completely wrong.

Fred, what I describe is just thermo. If you add more energy to a system than is lost by work or entropy, the energy accumulates. If you release more energy than is input, the energy of the system...

According to the IPCC, last years GMT of 0.34 deg C should have been 0.65 deg C, 0.3 deg C higher (wrong by half the warming of the 20th century!)

You should read the Pierrehumbert article. He disagrees with your figure of 393.6 K and instead cites a value of 800,000 K (after a billion years).

Edim – In order to make a point, Pierrehumbert is hypothesizing a scenario contrary to fact – the possibility of perfect insulation against escape of radiation combined with some transparency to...

I don’t want to belabor the point, but it’s important to realize that with a potent greenhouse effect, it is possible for radiative equilibrium to be associated with surface radiation far in excess of...
