Debunking the Deniers of Global Warming
Global Warming Denial
Liars
Is “Steve J”
an Ignoramus ?
The purpose of this web page is to illustrate the type of people that
compose the Global Warming Denier movement. The two individuals listed
here are inconsequential as to who they are, but what they are and how
they form their Global Warming Denial positions are significant as they
are typical of many others in the movement.
The two people involved were participants in an energy board forum that can be seen online at: http://downstreamventures.yuku.com/topic/3469?page=1. As shown by their posts, both “dpwozney” and “Steve J” are Global Warming Deniers.
“dpwozney” represents some of the “kooks” in the Denial movement. He
has his own website and has contributed multiple posts to various
Internet forums. A Google search using << dpwozney >>
will return links to many of these. The information given below is just
a brief outline of just how “far out” out some of these kooks are.
Besides being a Global Warming Denier, dpwozney is a Dinosaur Denier.
He tells us that Dinosaurs Fossils in museums are made out of misc.
bones from other animals. For example:
“To
put it bluntly, dinosaurs are bogus. The whole existence of
dinosaurs is totally made up and has only continued to exist in our
consciousness because of the many pathetic and dastardly purposes it
has served over the years. In this essay I will prove to you that
dinosaurs never existed.”

Note:
After I let D.P. know that I was going to include the above quote on
this web page, he deleted the page. But the search engines maintain
cache copies of web pages which is where the next two pictures came
from.
(The entire original article as it appeared on Wozney’s website might still be archived at: http://web.archive.org/web/20021130220822/larrywebsite.htmlplanet.com/SexyLar/dinosaurs/ )
And to prove that “dinosaurs are bogus”, the same author tells us how to “Make your own Dinosaur out of Chicken Bones”

The above samples were composed by a David P. Wozney who actually made PZ Myer’s web page at:
“There are always more creationist kooks” http://scienceblogs.com/pharyngula/2006/04/there_are_always_more_creation.php
Another lengthy analysis about dpwozney can be found at:

"In that spirit, I'd like to introduce you to David P. Wozney."
Perhaps we should invent a new word - “fractoceramicist”.
Derivation:
fracto - crack
ceramic - pertaining to pottery
ist - a person associated with fractoceramics
The other poster of interest is “Steve J”. Steve chooses not to
disclose his real identity, but this is a characteristic of many other
Global Warming Deniers. Steve is just one of the anonymous groupies
that endlessly repeat the denier propaganda. He is an example of the
(willful) ignorance of reality that is typical of most Global Warming
Deniers. He also demonstrates the typical disdain that Global Warming
Deniers have for educational institutions. This is a “hint” that most
Global Warming Deniers have a poor educational background - especially
in the sciences.
The following sequence is copied from the energy board forum.
The image above is a portion of a list of organizations that I posted
that provide evidence that Global Warming/Climate Change is real. Note
that the list includes the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the
California Institute of Technology, and the University of Illinois -
Champaign.
The following reply to the above list by “Steve J” is typical of Global Warming Deniers.
Steve’s opinion of the list that includes the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology, the California Institute of Technology, and the
University of Illinois - Champaign is:
“That's quite a list of pigs feeding at the trough”
I then asked “Steve J” to present opposing evidence to some of the documents in the list. One that I mentioned specifically was:
California Institute of Technology
"How We Know Global Warming is Real"
"The science behind human-induced climate change"
http://www.gps.caltech.edu/~tapio/papers/skeptic_2008.pdf
Steve’s reply is shown below.
Steve’s reply (which doesn’t fit on the page due to the energy board’s formatting) was:
“Your
links are complete garbage! The first sentence from your California
Institute of Technology "Atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations are
higher today than at any time in at least the past 650,000 years." is
factually incorrect. The rest of the paper is littered with falsities.”
Steve’s opinion of a document from the California Institute of Technology is that it
“is factually incorrect. The rest of the paper is littered with falsities.”
The
fact that atmospheric carbon dioxide levels are far higher today than
at any time in the previous 800,000 years can be seen at:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Co2-temperature-plot.svg
and
http://www.eea.europa.eu/data-and-maps/figures/antarctic-temperature-change-and-atmospheric-carbon-dioxide-concentration-co2-over-the-past-800-000-years
The
data on the second web page is courtesy of the University of Bern.
Perhaps “Steve J” would like to describe the University of Bern as one the “pigs”.
Finally, if you go back to the second picture, “Steve J” made another statement that said:
This
is another fabrication of the Global Warming Deniers. Carbon dioxide
levels in the 1820’s and 1830’s were in the range of 280 parts per
million. Current concentrations are nearing 390 parts per million.
