This is a big deal because 1) The Higgs Boson is the last undetected particle in the Standard Model of physics, and 2) The Higgs field is what gives other particles their mass. Xkcd has done work on the arrogance of physicists as well. Need to clear out the cobwebs of your basic physics knowledge? Willis does not appear to have calculated just how much incoming radiation was reflected back out by any of the volcanoes, so it doesn't seem to me that he's showing anything of value at all. And the climate is at a new equilibrium. Do I really have to draw attention (with an “Open Letter” to you published on PSI) to the fact that you appear to be unable to contradict the physics which I present? In other words, large amounts of atmospheric “back radiation” (admittedly a poor term) are required to explain why nighttime temperatures do not cool off more than observed.

I did a column a while ago about why This involves numbers, which means that the numerically squeamish may want to look away, and it also involves a few back-of-the envelope calculations so the mathematical experts may also want to look away. Disparity or dramatically increasing the value of hydrocarbons) it's not a likely scenario. The relative magnitudes can easily be compared by back-of-the-envelope calculations. But, in the spirit of being an arrogant physicist, I'm going to go ahead and make some back-of-the-envelope calculations, and expect that this post will be accurate to within a few orders of magnitude.
