Sarah,
I must say that I do appreciate your refreshing opinion on the article reviews. While I must admit I do disagree, the reasons are a little bit different.
My directive for disagreement on persuasion of Lindzen's article was that it was a blog and traditionally blogs are biased by their authors, because they are personal insights and feelings.
I do appreciate Biello's article because it does offer a proven document that the reader is able to research on their own, without Biello's signatory bias.
While your point is refreshing about not requiring certain documented information in order to be convinced of a political or scientific forum, I look for un-refuted analysis by persuasion. I have a tendency to try to stick to statistical information and signature documents as my key persuaders.
Just as we are peers to one another's blogs, our opinions will vary and agree to disagree. This is similar to these two articles. They are advocating for two different views of a global issue through persuasion. I suppose the bottom line is who the better persuader portrays their view as....we all have certain values that will validate their influence on our opinions. This was interesting look at both articles!
Very informative Post!
