This essay is an attempt to link real world observations (the failure of surface temperatures to rise in tandem with atmospheric CO2) to basic physics and thereby show why the radiative characteristics of Greenhouse Gases can not increase the surface temperature of a planet when atmospheric mass, the strength of the gravitational field and the power of insolation at the top of the atmosphere remain the same.

These uni-dimensional junk science professors are confident in their intellectual abilities to continue getting away with indulging in their idle speculations and spreading their flapdoodle about things that have proven to be untrue; and, they demand that we appoint them as elites to rule over the rest of us despite a complete absence of supporting evidence for their many predictions that have been falsified by real - world observations.
Part of the process involves adjusting model parameters within limits dictated by observations and the principles of physics so as to coax the simulations into good agreement with the real world climate.

Let's just sum it up by saying that I find that the mechanisms needed to provide even a partial explanation of observations happen to diverge from that which the reconstructions might suggest and my approach to resolving the discrepancy is continuing observation of the real world with the likely mechanisms in mind.
