Here is some Info on John Coleman

the Meteorologist who believes that the large portion of the scientific community who acknowledge the science behind Global Warming/Global Climate Change are a bunch of "wackos"


John Coleman admits that his expertise is in weather, and not in climate change science, and has been a tv weatheramn since he was a freshman in college in 1953.

There is a big difference between tv weather man and scientist, just as there is a difference between a tv nightly news host/pundit and a newsprint journalist.

Scientists actually study, collect data, and perform experiments, and create hypotheses and theories- Meteorologists (There are several sub categories) forecast the weather.

John Coleman was the "wacky weather guy" at channel 7 in Chicago in the "Happy Talk" news fad of the late 1960s and 1970s period- during the time when elderly women were the target audience.

John Coleman once did a stunt saying that if it snowed on a certain day he would do the weather standing on his head wearing only his underwear- It did, and he reniged

John Coleman was later fired and replaced with someone who can actually do real news.

He started the Weather Channel as a way to sell ad time and keep his tired comedy act going- but was later FIRED FROM THE WEATHER CHANNEL! THE CHANNEL HE HELPED START! Because the Weather Channel was sick of his antics.

Then John Coleman got hired by Chicago's Channel 5, because they thought it would boost ratings (it didn't) and they fired him after 6 months.

John Coleman is "famous" for popularizing the term "thorms" and "thowers" to represent thunderstorms and thundershowers.
