Twaddle. The English have never regarded literacy in science as any kind 
of cultural necessity.

They wouldn't recruit the anybody with explicit scientific training 
because they had had that training - scientists are on tap, not on top.

You own bizarre ideas about global warming are all too representative of 
the UK attitude. You know very little about the subject, but still think 
that you can read the literature and form your own opinion, which you 
imagine to be quite as valid as the opinions of people who know quite a 
bit more.
