Saying you use a "Slayer approach" is not the same thing as saying you're a Slayer. Probability that you're a Slayer certainly is higher if you're promoting those arguments though. The ocean surface isn't warmed by LW from the atmosphere, Scott. A child would understand this. It cools by LW to the atmosphere. Just as it cools by evaporation and conduction to the atmosphere. I agree that the ocean cools by LWIR. But it cools more slowly when another IR emitter is above it, no matter its temperature.
