Well done Bob. An enjoyable explanation of how it all seems to work when the big name denialists get organised. Can someone tell me: is it profit, or ego or simply delusion that gives these people the impetus to continue with their rants, which themselves can only be accepted by other nutters?

I have just joined this mailing list and have noted that there was a
discussion of Andrew Montford's book yesterday. I decided that Alastair
MacIntosh should not have to carry the responsibility alone for
countering the fawning write-ups of the book by Matt Ridley and
Christopher Booker, so provided The Guardian with this review which was
posted today:
