They're just piling on now .. not fair!
From the March issue of Physics Today:
"We estimate that the Sun could account for as much as 69% of the increase in Earth's average temperature."
The sun? Ya think?
Consenus? ... riiiiight.

From NPR, no less ....
Some 3,000 scientific robots that are plying the ocean have sent home a puzzling message. These diving instruments suggest that the oceans have not warmed up at all over the past four or five years.
Josh Willis at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory says the oceans are what really matter when it comes to global warming.
In fact, 80 percent to 90 percent of global warming involves heating up ocean waters. They hold much more heat than the atmosphere can. So Willis has been studying the ocean with a fleet of robotic instruments called the Argo system. The buoys can dive 3,000 feet down and measure ocean temperature. Since the system was fully deployed in 2003, it has recorded no warming of the global oceans.
"There has been a very slight cooling, but not anything really significant," Willis says
Hey, wait just a minute, buster ... don't you know there is consensus on this already!
