I learn a lot myself critiquing other people's work. What's interesting is I learned this process as part of a creative writing workshop where the work was naturally longer than it is for a single article. There's a lot more source material to find things you like and suggestions to improve the work. I wasn't sure how it would work out with articles, but for me it's worked the same way. I just have to think a little differently, which is the whole point for me. Let me know when you have more in the series of articles published. I'll be interested to read them. I'm not different than most people in having strong opinions about global warming and what I think we should all do. I'm interested in seeing where you take the next few articles and what facts you uncover. I absolutely agree it's an issue that is hard to be completely objective about. We all have our views and it's much easier to find half truths that back out point of view instead of seeking out scientific truth. Thanks again for being a guinea pig. I hope my comments help in some way and I hope others realize the benefits in having your work critiqued and in critiquing someone else's work. Glad to help Jack.

I appreciate your thoughtful approach and comments. I will be re-reading them to allow them to fully sink in. Certainly it is encouraging to read the points you liked, and this process buys you enough points to be able to get a fair hearing on the critical suggestions! This just reinforces what you and I both believe about the value of this process. By the way, with this initial post, I had in mind following it with a series examining the science, point by point, which I have started to build. You are absolutely right about the difficulty in maintaining neutrality in this process. I have become bogged down somewhere in my 3rd and 4th premises of the theory and the difficulty of a non-scientist making a scientific determination is probably going to be the subject of a future post! I have seen a posting on another site referencing my non-analytical conclusions and use of "orders of magnitude" referencing the influence of greenhouse gasses. I clearly have some work to do there. Thanks again. I really enjoyed having your feedback. Jack Thanks Steven. I appreciate your thoughtful approach and comments. I will be re-reading them to allow them to fully sink in.
