I likewise don’t doubt the sincerity of those who take what they hear from the doom-and-bloomers as gospel. But it has been nearly two decades now and that avalanche of super hurricanes has yet to happen, and those sincere folks seem just as ready to swallow the avalanche of excuses generated by the aforesaid doom-and-bloomers as they were/are to swallow the super hurricane predictions in the first place.

Illogical, to say the least.
Do you give credence to the paid big oil minions that claim everything is just peachy?
And, to clarify, a prediction is a guess, not a promise. Someone likes to claim we were "promised" a certain number of hurricanes. I'm glad that situations didn't happen as expected.
