Dick- First, I’d like to comment on your statement that, “The issue of whether clouds can cause El Nino is a red herring.” I agree, and I assume from this that you also have no physical ev...

Roy- Correlation does not prove causality. Period. I honestly cannot believe you want to argue this point. The fact that you do lays bare the intellectual bankruptcy of your “clouds cause clim...

Dear Andy, It is clear where you are going wrong. You are confusing changes over long periods during which equilibration can occur with fluctuations from which feedbacks can be determined. Note ...

Andy, I cannot believe you keep saying "correlations do not prove causality", when you yourself have used a (near-zero!) correlation in your paper to support causality in only one direction! B...

Dick- Your question gets to the same issue that I am after: what is the cause of the temperature variations over the last 10 years. If it turns out that clouds are responsible, then that would i...

Dear Andy, I find this exchange a little peculiar in that you never seem to address what I understand Roy's main points to be. First, Roy notes that outgoing radiation (especially in the visibl...

Hello, Roy. If you don't mind, I'm going to keep after you on one important point. In these e-mails, we have discussed two hypotheses for the observed lead/lag relation and decorrelation. My hy...

Happy New Year Andy, I've been catching up this week after having last week off for the holidays. The evidence I presented you was NOT just the decorrelation of the data, as you claim...as I me...

Roy- Happy new year! Thanks for your response. I do think we are making progress now. In your last message, you confirm that the only evidence supporting your hypothesis is the observed correl...

Roy Spencer and I have been having an interesting and useful exchange of ideas on the cloud feedback. The goal is not just for us to hear contrasting views, but for the interested public to liste...
