Those with predetermined conclusions will reject this information out of hand.

Actually that is only true if the predetermined conclusion is in favor of global warming theories. One could also say with equal certainty that people who have predetermined that there is no such thing as global warming will embrace this information without question.

Putting this as gently as I can - anyone wanting the rational to believe them on an issue involving science and effective research should avoid naming their site "freedom-force". That's right up with "green'n'mean" as likely to be based purely on the science.

What's 'coling' mean?

It's short for computational linguistics.
No, it doesn't make sense to me either. |

Third item down on the link the OP supplied is a ref to the UK Channel 4 programme the "Great Global Warming Swindle". This was severely debunked by several scientists.
If this completely distorted programme is what this site relies on for information, you may be assured it is not interested in freedom of information but force feeding inaccuracies. |

An article (in scientific context) is something in a peer-reviewed journal.
Number of articles on that web-site = 0. (At least I did not find one.) I had the press reporting about our activities (particle and nuclear physics) many times. They always found a way to get it wrong or not quite right or even turn it in such a way that even we could not recognize what they where reporting about. Therefore I never, ever trust the mass media on science.

Well considering the sources, one has to wonder.
