Hey, Bob, you must know that your views are outliers in all this. The scientific consensus seems to be that there's been a notable increase in the number of large wildfires over the period discussed, and that the fire season is as much as three months longer than it was in the mid-20th century.  And science probably knows more about AGW than it does about gravity, since AGW is strictly a geophysical phenomenon. 

Rather than take exception to your specific claims, though, let me ask you something. You think that the AGW consensus is enforced by granting agencies and by a kind of modern-day academic Lysenkoism, like in the USSR, right? And that this conspiracy-like formation is tied together by economic self interest and some unified cultural, social and political agenda. AGW research itself is actually quite flimsy.

So why haven't oil and coal billionaires, like the Kochs, funded rigorous research that debunks AGW? There'd be no granting agencies, no government enforced uniformity.
