Stephan, may I borrow this comment and sprinkle it on my lawn to help it grow? Really. I have watched this topic area for years and BLPs of skeptics are absolutely littered with opinions like this. Do some research on skeptic BLPs and notice how much George Monbiot is quoted, and he's not even a scientist!. Editors like you have either ignored the use of such opinions as sources or outright endorsed it, because the opinions supported your POV. Now we have similar opinions from a respected climatologist, published in the Wall Street Journal, and all of a sudden it's a primary source?! Please! Anyone who spends more than 5 minutes examining the histories can see the blatant hypocrisy of your position. In fact, on BLP/N right now there is a debate about Michaels' criticism started by none other than ChrisO  this is the same editor who has, in the last week, edit-warred to include non-notable and weakly-sourced criticism in Chris Monckton's BLP. The hypocrisy of the editors here is absolutely astounding, and I will be shocked if arbcom doesn't deal with it.   20:26
