My question related to the study which establishes that there's no consensus.

I agree there is no consensus.

Yet you cannot point to a peer-reviewed study which establishes that. On the other hand, there are such studies establishing the consensus.

As I said Quote:

A denialist is one who denies all that is not consistent with their world view.

The consensus is inconsistent with your world view, so you deny the consensus. Studies establish the consensus, so you deny the studies. The studies are compiled into a wiki, so you deny the wiki. And so it goes.

Whine though you no doubt will, the answer remains: # wrote on Sep 26^th, 2013 at 3:46pm:

cyberstalking
Quote:

... the attacker harasses a victim using electronic communication, such as e-mail or instant messaging (IM), or messages posted to a Web site or a discussion group. A cyberstalker relies upon the anonymity afforded by the Internet to allow them to stalk their victim without being detected. ...

Much like sexual harassment, the crime may not be in what the perpetrator thinks they're doing, but in how the victim feels about it. Does compiling information and posting it in a particular context qualify? That depends on the victim's perception.

Same to you, I support all AGW skeptics against alarmist insanity. And thanks, I am glad you like the site.

I like the part where you debunk 911 Conspiracy theories.

How is the trolling going?

No need to be modest. It's a well written page. Now the Topic of this thread is populartechnology.net. Would you care to explain to me how that's trolling or even off-topic? Hmmm?

That is not a dictionary, please provide a definition from a dictionary (Not Wikipedia). Are you unable to read my posts clearly?

Definition of denialist in English

denialist
Pronunciation: /dɪˈnʌɪ(ə)lɪst/
noun

a person who refuses to admit the truth of a concept or proposition that is supported by the majority of scientific or historical evidence:the small minority of very vocal climate change denialists [as modifier]:the denialist view.

The Oxford Dictionary

Thank you now,

1. What is this "truth" that is refused to be admitted?
2. Please provide the comprehensive resource demonstrating that this "truth" is supported by the "majority of scientific or historical evidence".
3. Is scientific validity determined by mob rules?
4. Where Darwin, Einstein and Galileo "denialists"?

If I had one, would it be wise to make it a target for a cyber-terrorist*? His behaviour here is unpleasant enough.

Now there's an idea. Not a web site; I'm not really that interested. Perhaps a page on SourceWatch. That might be fun.
