   Aristotle is dead, but his philosophical ideas are often quoted.   
   Pr. Richard Feynman brightly explained the scientific method to his   
   students. The scientific method is the basic tool of all sciences,   
   climatology included :

   Climate is 30 years or more according to the IPCC. But it is not exactly   
   what matters : after those 40 years, ALL the CMIP models diverged   
   significantly from reality in one or many of the 4 tested domains   
   (stratosphere, stratosphere, tropics, mid-latitudes).
