The thing that astounds me is he wants a 'scientific' debate but I pointed out an error in a statement (quite politely for me I thought) and I end up being called Grimbo (quite like that one too - I could use that one at Christmas - Grimbo at Crimbo!!). I wonder what the response would have been if I'd have questioned the snowflakes are 50% air assumption?
