Mann, it's hairy in the climate wars

Sometimes, you just have to laugh. Doing a Google search for Michael E. Mann to find his CV to respond to this comment, I came across this odd presentation from Google. In it, Michael E. Mann gains hair, and I lose it. I blame “climate disruption” and the “Hair Club for Climatologists”.

And in case you didn’t notice, the photos aren’t of Mann or myself at all. The silly mix-up is likely an artifact of other prominent people with the same names. At least it got the other guys right.

RACook–I like extinguished better, too.
I have to add, this just goes to show the anonymity in having a common name. If you don’t know me fairly well, you will have a heck of a time separating me from the millions of other Johnsons out there.

So you are now a rugby player in England? You certainly get around.
It is near impossible to get the Google collective to correct anything. Perhaps you could sue them for defamation of character?

That should throw off the face recognition software at the airport.

When I have spent time with rich people, I have noticed that a lot of the rich men are bald, more so than in the general population. I have therefore come up with a theory, which can be stated thus: I can state with a high degree of certainty that there is a 97% probability that 97% of rich men are bald, alternatively there is 97% chance that being rich make men bald. At no time however, is the probability of my being wrong higher than 97%.

INlight of the announcement that the NSA has been collecting millions of portraits online to assist in their facial recognition programs’ database building:

I can forecast that this is another Federal program doomed by the Law of Unintended Consequences.
