Climate Models

I have talked about my questions concerning climate change before, and many of my concerns relate to the use of models - which are not data, but an estimate, based upon the model's developers understandings (and prejudices), of what might happen. Here is a rather good article discussing some of the strengths and weaknesses of climate models. Written by an individual who agrees with the immediate dangers of cimate change, it's somewhat more optimistic about model accuracy than I am, but it raises good issues with climate models.
