Walt,
That link led me to the Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine. I had never heard of them. Had you? I decided to find out who they are. Here's some information I found on them.

However, I HAVE heard of the AMA (American Meteorological Society), NASA, NOAA, NSIDC (The National Snow and Ice Data Center out of the Univ of CO), and the National Science Foundation.

See the following empirical observations. Feel free to research the sources of those observations, then research the sources of studies that supposedly refute global warming. You may find it eye opening.

CRU temperature trend:

NASA GISS temperature trend:

Satellite readings:

Radiosondes:

Borehole analysis:

Glacial melt observations:

Sea ice melt:

Sea level rise:

Proxy Reconstructions:

Permafrost is thawing:

All of these completely independent analyses of widely varied aspects of the climate system lead to the same conclusion: the Earth is undergoing a rapid and large warming trend, and Man's activities are contributing to that trend.

Respectfully,
Marc
