Now that the very foundation of AGW denialism has been destroyed, what will the next scientific denial be?

Q: Here is what destroyed the non-scientific website... http://dels.nas.edu/dels/rpt_briefs/climate_change_2008_final.pdf http://www.ncdc.noaa.gov/oa/climate/research/2008/aug/global.html#introduction http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/ Thanks to Redleg for some information. http://www.cru.uea.ac.uk/cru/data/temperature/ http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/corporate/pressoffice/myths/2.html

A: When deniers think that amateurs like Anthony Watts and surfacestations.org have disproven NASA, NOAA, Hadley Center, RSS, etc., there's just no reasoning with them. I don't even try anymore, because they're hopeless. 1) The supposed "good" stations (red) show the same warming trend as the supposed "bad" stations (green). http://www.inturnsoftware.com/downloads/crn12_crn5_giss.gif 2) The satellites show the same trend as the surface stations. http://tamino.files.wordpress.com/2008/03/4way.jpg 3) Surfacestations.org is either intentionally deceptive or incredibly amateur. http://tamino.wordpress.com/2007/07/30/surface-stations/ 4) People who think the surface station data is corrupt don't understand how it's analyzed. http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2007/07/no-man-is-an-urban-heat-island/ I've never been able to get a straight answer from the deniers in question as to why the satellites show the same warming as the surface if the surface is corrupt. I guess it's those urban centers surrounding the orbiting satellites, right? No matter, the deniers have plenty of other myths to choose from to maintain their denial (i.e. global warming has stopped, it's all due to the sun, Mars is warming, volcanoes emit more CO2 than humans have in 6 bajillion years, etc.).
