The AGW Coffin Now Mostly Nails

It's about time to admit the wood in the AGW coffin is now just a pile of sawdust. Having been splintered by a plethora of real scientific and historical research, it sits waiting for the next warm wind to simply blow it away and become fertilizer, like so much other BS.

Tim Birdnow traces the rise of empires during the Medieval Warm Period and their subsequent fall with the return of a colder climate, and the AGW scam artists' attempts to quash the facts.

A Moment in the Sun
"A major person working in the area of climate change and global warming sent me an astonishing e-mail that said, ‘We have to get rid of the Medieval Warm Period’ [a well-documented and widely recognized period during the Middle Ages warmer than any period in the 20th century] (Tom Bethell, The Politically Incorrect Guide to Science, courtesy of The Global Warming Hoax 3)."
---
"A new study "Putting the Rise of the Inca within a Climatic and Land Management Context" drives just one more stake through the heart of this nonsensical attack on the Medieval Warming Period and subsequent Little Ice Age."
---"
People and empires were on the move during the years of the MWP, and they stopped moving-or moved out-afterward. SOMETHING was certainly happening at this time, and something destroyed many of these great empires. When the Maunder Minimum struck in 1645, the Earth appears to have cooled globally, and the moment in the sun for many great peoples and kingdoms ended in the darkness of a cold, hungry world."
---
"Their day in the sun is past, and the coming of the cold wrecked their once proud kingdoms. A warm world is hardly a bad thing."
Check it out. It reminds me of the critically acclaimed book Plagues and Peoples by the late great historian William H. McNeill which describes in meticulous detail the decisive impact of communicable diseases on the course of history - determining who won, who lost and why, factors beyond the understanding of the actors on the stage.

At the end of the day, real academic research, subjected to the rigors of genuine scholarly critique rather than politically correct bullshit always wins the day.
