The question was Which models told us we'd be underwater by now?

You claimed knowledge and have yet to name a single one.

Al Gore is not a geophysical scientist and has published no peer reviewed papers in any GeoPhys | Climate journals so whatever a second rate US VP may have claimed in a film I certainly haven't watched is hardly relevant.

Can you back your claim or not?

Can you even name one climate model used in an IPCC report?

it's really great being a reality denier, you can just pick one unqualified person's worst mistake and use it to dismiss an entire field of thousands of people who've spent their entire adult life investigating and understanding something.

it's like quoting those scientists who believed that heavier than air flight was not possible and deciding that you don't need qualified engineers to build them - afterall somebody somewhere got something wrong, didn't they!
