(including you) are qualified to comment on global warming, yet suddenly a
miniscule increase in CO2 (I mean like, wow, from 200 something to 300
something parts per **million**) is suddenly cause for you to drop your
claim of not being well enough versed in the subject and take a strong
position of doom?
