Climategatekeeping

In the MIT Climategate Forum, Ronald Prinn trotted out what has become one of the standard “move along” memes in the climate science community: that while the “tone” of the Climategate emails was “unprofessional”, they did not succeed in their “endeavour” to prevent publication of articles in journals or mentions in IPCC. Prinn at around […]

DOE sends a “litigation hold notice” regarding CRU to employees

Anthony reports that DOE has sends a “litigation hold notice” regarding CRU to employees – asking to “preserve documents”. DOE funded Phi Jones at CRU for 25 years. I think that I recall Jones saying somewhere in the Climategate Letters that he hopes no one finds out. See details at Anthony’s. Update: As mentioned by […]

Unthreaded #43

For OT links and non-topical points. Editorially, I prefer that readers stick to short points and not try to solve all the problems of the world in 3 paragraphs or prove or disprove the entire apparatus of climate science in 4 sentences. Try to avoid using adjectives. A whole lot of comments containing adjectives end […]

Daily Mail: Special Investigation

Daily Mail has detailed coverage on “hide the decline”.

Mann: “Let’s enjoy the media fiesta… “

From an email from Mann to Ammann, Rahmstorf, Briffa, Osborn and Jones on Aug 12, 2005: Meanwhile, lets enjoy the media fiesta on … Needless to say, the media fiesta was not at the expense of a Team member. Go here and in chain here .

MIT Climategate Debate

Interesting online debate at MIT featuring Lindzen, Emanuel and others. Emanuel foams about the supposed “premeditated and orchestrated distraction from important issues.” He and Andrew Lloyd Weaver need to compare notes about the shadowy KGB-fossil fuel interest-Macavity the Cat network, ground zero at the University of Victoria where the most recent outrage was the theft […]

Trevor Davies, UEA on Leaked Documents: Then and Now

Trevor Davies, University of East Anglia pro-vice chancellor with responsibiltiy for research and enterprise, recently condemned the use of “stolen” emails on behalf of the University of East Anglia e.g. here. In email 0925823304.txt on May 4, 1999, Trevor Davies wrote to Phil Jones, Keith Briffa, Mike Hulme, Jean Palutikoff and Mick Kelly (who are […]

IPCC and the “Trick”

Much recent attention has been paid to the email about the “trick” and the effort to “hide the decline”. Climate scientists have complained that this email has been taken “out of context”. In this case, I’m not sure that it’s in their interests that this email be placed in context because the context leads right […]

New KGB-Fossil Fuel Company Attack at UVic

Increasingly nervous about progress at Copenhagen, the KGB-fossil fuel network have intensified their pressure on Andrew Weaver of the University of Victoria and climate modelers throughout the world. The most recent outrage was a laptop theft from an anthropology lab at the university. Breaking news from our correspondent at the University of Victoria, ground zero […]

Weaver Solves Climategate

Andrew Weaver, a modeler with the University of Victoria General Circulation Modeling Unit, has attracted considerable attention with his allegations that computer thefts at the University of Victoria were smoking gun proof of teleconnections between American fossil fuel interests, Russian secret agents and Climategate. Andrew Ll. Weaver, a modeler with the University of Victoria General […]
