Bill I liked what you had to say about rich people insulating themselves, Al Gore I suppose cannot really be blamed for being rich, but $30,000 on the old lecky ain't really playing the game, least not in my opinion.
Technically for a theory to be 'proven' someone has to come up with an experiment to test and prove the theory. For example particle accelerators are built to test quantum theory, observation alone is not sufficient to prove a theory. This however might be a hang over from the old days of deterministic science. Cosmologist will be a bit pressed to find an experiment to prove big bang theory just as climatogists cannot really prove or disprove the extent of mans contribution to global warming. The consensus is that man has made a significant contribution but a consensus isn't fact it is just an educated opinion, and opinions, even educated ones, can be wrong.
