ace...Im not going to get into another debate on global warming with you or you might bring up IBD editorials and the methane cows again.
I would simply refer you to raveneye's post, re: the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an international body of more than 100 scientists whose work is peer reviewed by other scientists on both sides of the global warming issue.

Check out their presentations and graphics.
On the computer modeling issue, to me it seems rather obvious that only a computer is likely to be able to find a meaningful path through the enormous complexity of atmospheric processes.
The IPCC website has a very nice graphic showing how accurate the models have been in "post-dicting" the mean global temperature:

This graphic shows clearly that you can't ignore anthropogenic processes.

I do accept the IPCC as the source providing the best analysis of the issue and I agree with their findings that we cant can't ignore anthropogenic processes.
If you dont want to accept the work of the IPCC.....thats fine. Lets just leave it at that.
