I hope that you and your loved ones have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I clicked the like button. @ the people who clicked the dislike button on MattB 22 Come on, its the season to be jolly! I appreciate MattB's sense of humor. To give the guy a thumbs down for posting a humorous link is beneath the dignity of any decent person. Although I generally disagree with MattB I do respect his right to post his comments. In the end there are three things that last: faith, hope and love. I have "faith" that MattB will see the light, I "hope" we skeptics do not follow the poor example of the criminals at RealClimate and stoop to de facto censorship and my personal beliefs require me to "love" EVERYBODY, especially those who disagree with me or even hate me. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everybody! @ Mattb 22

The efforts of people like Jo and the the bloggers on this site have been key in keeping this issue alive, and while it's early days, judging by the people I talk to the AGW theory is starting to wear thin with most of them. There's still a lot of vested interest to overcome though. I’ll second that Merry Christmas Scott #19.
