None was double-counted: each was a distinct error. For instance, you have counted Gore's suggestion that "global warming" caused the draining of Lake Chad and drought on the fringes of the Sahara as a single error, but these are two distinct errors. It is known that Lake Chad's draining was caused by local factors, and that the Sahara has actually shrunk by 300,000 sq.km in the past 30 years, contrary to what Gore said about it. At a number of points you have carelessly dismissed our findings as "spin" because you were not aware of the data that demonstrate the error. The decline in serious typhoons and tropical storms is one example that is well attested to in the literature. Likewise, Gore's interpretation of the growth in insurance losses is known to be incorrect, and there are papers on it in the literature. At some points you have not been careful enough to read what was actually written. We said that the Democrat administration in New Orleans (which has been Democrat-held for a long time) was responsible for not having responded to the pleas of the Corps of Engineers to arrange State and Federal funding for strengthening the levees. Under the US Constitution this comes under the heading of States' Rights, and the Federal Government (of whatever stamp) could not intervene unless and until New Orleans, via the State Governor, made the necessary request - which it did not bother to make.
