"Today we don’t call them soothsayers or saucers, we called them modeling experts. They tell us when the earth is going to warm and why they tell us how many people are going to die and where. When they’re wrong they don’t say that they’re all full of it. They blame the data because they could never be wrong."
Adamantly Disagree. Although I think you are right that there is interpretation of data which is biased. We are much better off than what the soothsayers say. We have science.
I guess we should just but a finger in the air and guess if we aren't basing our assumptions on data?
