Thank you for this lead Barry! It it has helped me in my nascent researching of this topic.
Regarding modeling, Freemon Dyson says in the video that even Suki Manabe has mentioned that "models are excellent tools for understanding climate, but they are very bad tools for predicting climate".
Here is a talk from the author of the book Dyson was promoting in that interview. Cool It: The Skeptical Environmentalist's Guide to Global Warming - YouTube
I also found this short interview of another Princeton Professor of physics interesting Princeton physicist: There’s a ‘cult’ building around climate scientists - YouTube
and here is a couple of interesting resources I found that at first glance seem like good content.
Watts Up With That? – The world's most viewed site on global warming and climate change
Everything Climate – The data and the theories
On a similar note. Who hear remembers the Climate Gate scandal? Interesting to note, that these particular articles from the Telegraph and MIT Research Review could only be found on a web archive.
