Well, technically, if more than 1% disagree on anything you could say "99% don't agree".

But that's entirely misleading. And certainly not truthful.

Do show your source for the claim that 99% of academics do not believe AGW to be valid.

You're the one making the claim, you have to provide the citation for it. It's that simple. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. So far, I haven't seen any evidence.

What claim?

This is my first comment on the topic. And I said nothing about whether AGW exists, or not.

What I -did- challenge is your assertion that "99% of academics don't agree [on AGW]". That was -your- claim.
