so if you had cancer you'd go to a pediatrist? screw the oncologist, they're both doctors. Or do you actually believe that all astronomers are equally knowledgable about all facets of astronomy? If you read the article you'd discover his knowledge is based on conversations he's had with other astronomers who focus on the sun more.
Edit. and for the record i do realize that is a over generalization, however, this perception that the scientists supporting global warming are infalible needs to end. and I fully believe and accept that CO2 is a contributing factor to global warming.
