The oddballs that make up the visible 1/10th of the denier/birther/spacer (non-melting) iceberg are not exactly from that cohort's top drawer.
Everyone admits this, even the spacers - but no one is exactly sure why.
Why have your artillery fire fruitcakes at the cast-hardened massed armour of the left-liberal-scientific establishment, if you really truly deny global climate and environmental disaster?
Where are the heavy-lifting-ready brains and the real heavy money of the denier/birther/spacer movement?

"DENIER LIT" : 'Hard' SF
We think we know what women like to read - we claim it is something called "CHICK LIT". So what do deniers/birthers/spacers - call 'em what you will - read ?
Can the jokes about them being unable to read, or only reading with their fingers while breathing through their mouths as the knuckles of their other hand grazes the ground , ape-style.
These guys do read - a lot. A lot more than their younger critics probably do.
I think we will find that they read 'Hard SF' and its close cousins - with authors like Robert Heinlein, Tom Clancy and Michael Crichton high in their Pantheon of author-prophets.

Deniers: if they LIE to you about their funding, they'll LIE to you about global warming as well
Trust me on this one, will ya ?
If a blogger or website (be it a denier, birther or spacer site) won't tell where all their funds come from, in detail, they are hiding something they are ashamed of.
And that something is frequently the fact their opinion is not in fact their own, but rather something stuffed in their mouth --- in exchange for 30 pieces of very big silver.
