It seems to me though that there was someone who did a lot of reading about clouds and climate and CO2 concentrations and the snowball earth theory. If I remember correctly there was a particular person and a cadre of fanboys who just dismissed it all because they were quite sure "there is something going on."

What are you talking about here? Is this your impression of the substance behind the "pro" side of the global warming debate?

I have read articles where Global Warming "deniers" are being compared to Holocaust deniers.

In general, I would say one of my concerns regarding the politicizing of this issue is the manner in which contrary views are regarded and summarily dismissed. This is also sometimes an indication "of something going on".

Edit: As a matter of fact, as I read more of this thread I'm seeing a lot of stuff like "sponsored by oil companies", etc. So one doesn't have to go far to experience this phenomenon.
