In the newsletter, I find uses of the terms "science" and "predict." In climatology, these terms are polysemic, that is, they have more than one meaning. That they are polysemic supports applications of the equivocation fallacy on the part of climatologists. These applications of the fallacy mask serious shortcomings in the methodology of global warming research.
In future editions of the newsletter, you can help to prevent applications of the equivocation fallacy by disambiguating the terminology by which it is written. I provide a terminology that could be used for this purpose athttp://wmbriggs.com/blog/?p=7923 .
