As the president and his congress prepare to impose costly regulations on businesses and us, remember what they (in part) are basing their climate change reasoning on.

Computer models…

Flawed computer models may have exaggerated the effects of an Icelandic volcano eruption that has grounded tens of thousands of flights, stranded hundreds of thousands of passengers and cost businesses hundreds of millions of euros. The computer models that guided decisions to impose a no-fly zone across most of Europe in recent days are based on incomplete science and limited data, according to European officials. As a result, they may have over-stated the risks to the public, needlessly grounding flights and damaging businesses.

Hmmm. “… incomplete science”, “limited data”, “over-stated”. Seems like we’ve heard this before but some people just won’t listen.
