nytimes.com— How did Freeman Dyson, the world-renowned scientist and public intellectual, wind up opposing those who care most about global warming?

Dyson is definitely no dummy and anyone who thinks so just has not become aware of the enormity of his works - both in breadth and depth. And the fact that his mind is so quick and flexible at age 85 puts the youngsters of 35 and 40 to shame - those who can't or won't think outside their current mental box or simply trade it for another. My husband Paul Wakfer at age 71 is very much like Freeman Dyson, a man who has been one of his (few) heroes for many years.
FTA: "Dyson may be an Obama-loving, Bush-loathing liberal who has spent his life opposing American wars and fighting for the protection of natural resources, but he brooks no ideology and has a withering aversion to scientific consensus."Looks like the Left won't be able to destroy the character of this 'denier' and will actually have to confront his science regarding global warming. Of course, they managed to dismiss Hitchens over Iraq?yet another Obama supporter. Why can?t they do it to this guy?

One more nail in the Warmists' coffin. LOL Sooner or later we'll drive their dangerous cult back into the shadows with the rest of the vermin.
