The deniers are really limited to an odd group of sad, strange, mostly older men seeking glory by making brave and defiant pronouncements for which they have no scientific support.
Hence, Barrons offers us Antonio Zichichi, a retired professor of advanced physics at the University of Bologna - with no training or research performed in the area of climate change. The prevalence of older gentlemen enjoying a day in the sun to the applause of the denier claque has been noted by others, of course: Inhofes List of Global Warming Deniers Includes 49 Who Are Retired - thedailygreen.com
This guy, at 78, is practically a spring chicken by Barron's usual standards. The last "I just don't get it" retiree Barrons propped up here was well into his 80's.
