Global warming

Am currently reading “A short history of everything” by Bill Bryson.  I first saw the book on Nina’s bookshelf in Bermuda and started reading it, did not want to nick her copy, so bought a copy when I got back home and continued reading. Have to recommend it….tried Stephen Hawkins history of….. once, but had to give up (just after the first chapter).     In a section about Ice Ages, it is written that a guy by the name of Alexander von Humboldt, once observed that there are 3 stages to any scientific discovery
1. denial
2. denial of any importance
3. acceptance and give credit for the discovery to the wrong person
I was reminded of this whilst I driving up the motorway, listening to a discussion on Global Warming
 The ”leader” of the free world..JWB (him who seems to have trouble talking in joined up words), views on Global warming seem to confirm this theory
1. There is no global warming
2. Well ! Ok but it’s not that important anyway
3. We will lead the world in the fight against it
