The "founder" of the weather channel, I believe, has absolutely no
university credentials in weather science.

Neither does Al Gore.

Hehe. Can't believe this guy founded the Weather Channel, but
apparently he did, whatever that means.
He was - to me - the biggest jerk on TV here in Chicago, starting
that "happy talk" crap on WLS-7 Chicago.
That "news" crew were known as clowns here, and compared poorly
to Curtis/Jacobson on WBBM-2.
I saw Coleman once near the Sears Tower on my commute to Union
Station, and could have sworn he gave me the eye.
Not making any judgements on his weather expertise.
Just that - to me - he was a clown.

Lots of people running around in clown suits now-a-days.

Why does that matter? People become experts in fields through study
and experience outside of educational institutions every day.


It matters.

How?

Ahh, but Gore typically cites and references others, pedigreed experts,
if you will, in pulling together his materials. The weather channel guy
sets himself up as an expert. He has no credentials. In fact, I spent
about two minutes researching him, and while I may have missed
something, it doesn't seem as if he has even a bachelor's degree...in
anything.

He's not an expert, and no one would accept his credentials. Except, of
course, those who cite him to support their anti-global warming nonsense.

I could be a TV weatherman. So could almost anyone else. The job does
not require much knowledge of weather science. Especially when the
weather channel guy got started.

Doesn't GWB have a college degree? That doesn't matter, as we have seen.

Which reminds me of a suggestion my best pal in the Navy had to
camouflage our destroyer against Ruskie attack.
Paint the ship snow white and add white-painted plywood outcroppings
so that our destroyer would look like an ice floe.
We would have to wear penguin suits when topside.

Coleman has no more "weatherman" qualifications than the great Willard
Scott, a wonderful personality who got his show-biz start as the
original Ronald McDonald. Willard handled the weather on the local NBC
affiliate for years and then got promoted to the Today Show's weatherman.

Bush's degrees were bought and paid for by his grandfather.
