Sorry, your outta gas on this one. I could keep going.....but why?

From your list that haven't signed:
David H. Douglass
Benjamin D. Pearson
L. F. Khilyuk
John R. Christy
Kirill Ya. Kondratyev,
Eric S. Posmentier .
What they don't keep in contact with their professional associates?
IPCC contributors that haven't signed:

Andrew Staniforth
Hadley Centre for Climate Prediction
and Research, Met Offi ce
UK

Ronald J. Stouffer
National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration, Geophysical
Fluid Dynamics Laboratory
USA

Mark Tadross
Climate Systems Analysis Group,
University of Cape Town
South Africa

Chris Thorncroft
Department of Earth and Atmospheric
Science, University at Albany, SUNY
USA, UK
Surely if there are so many IPCC contributors that disagree with their conclusions, some would have taken the time to sign the petition. Even Landsea and Pielke have not signed it. Nor have McKitrick and McIntyre.

And FYI, Lindzen has never criticized the science in IPCC's Working Group I: The Science of Climate Change. What he is critical of is the "Summary for Policy Makers."
