for a technical but much more thorough and satisfying overview of how water vapor influences climate, people should see this document:

I'm sure we would all like to know.
Have you found any more info on this Turtle?

Mostly I have found other forum debates.

I did read one bit saying the Earth's heating of the ocean was 'normalized', or some such a matter of phrase, in their modeling using tritium(sp?) levels in ocean water? Sorry I didn't save that link. Maybe search that specifically next. Anyway, the point is of course a generalized value as an initial condition input makes for, IMHO, a less than confident view of the result of a model of a non-linear system.
