Couldn't agree more on the nature of what the forum should be about. I don't care what resources or tools someone has at their disposal, they can only make predictions, they cannot know without question, what will be happening in 100, 500 or 1000 years time. Yes, we appear to be warming for now, and the reasons for that are far from clear, no more to be said than that. Magpie, I don't want to be rude, but we would have got the message without quoting the entire post like that, bit of a waste of space and scrolling really.
