Confound it

sea ice stats

Climate scientists are possibly the only people more surprised by how the world is unfolding than Keynesian economists:

ANTARCTIC sea ice has expan­ded to its greatest coverage since records began in 1978, continuing to confound climate scien­tists and proving even more hazardous than usual for shipping in the Southern Ocean.

Yet there is no one politically more dangerous than someone who has been shown to be wrong. Saving a billion or two makes no difference since nothing related to the real world will get these people to change their minds. There was then this the other day:

NOAA – 246 Low Max Records Broken or Tied From Sept 1 to Sept 10. Some records broken by 16F.

I’m sure that confounded a few people as well. The “I’m a Global Warmist and I Vote” crowd are doing an awful lot of harm but how do you stop it?
