This is the global warming version of the Pentagon Papers, when Daniel Ellsberg stole a top-secret study of American Decision making during the Vietnam war and gave it to the NY Times. A Hacker got into the files of the computers at the University of East Anglias Climate Research Unit (Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites these confidential files onto the internet. What these files outline is a systematic cover-up of science disproving global warming the climate change moonbats.
According to the BBC, A university spokesman confirmed the email system had been hacked and that information was taken and published without permission. What was published is explosive. As summarized in the Andrew Bolt in the Australian Herald Sun:
So the 1079 emails and 72 documents seem indeed evidence of a scandal involving most of the most prominent scientists pushing the man-made warming theory - a scandal that is one of the greatest in modern science...emails suggesting conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more. If it is as it now seems, never again will peer review be used to shout down sceptics. This is clearly not the work of some hacker, but of an insider whos now blown the whistle.
Here are some examples of what was released by the Hacker:

cough.. Whistleblower Protection Act... cough..
bump
God bless and protect whoever it was that blew the whistle on this scam!
This figures. We all knew they were full of CRAP!
Will Gore be brought before a Congressional committee for grilling, the way the cigarette execs got nailed for suppressed docs on the dangers of smoking?
Now, let’s connect Gore to these people...
Maybe Hollywood will do a movie about a brave insider who exposed an evil and corrupt international conspiracy.
Yeah right. If it is libs conspiring - you never hear about it.
FReepublic and the blogosphere have been all over this all day. Glad to see the larger media picking it up.
BTW, I do have to snicker at one phrase in the article: “released 61 megabites” (snicker)
ANSWER: Whores for government funded research.
QUESTION: What do scientists become when they are funded by the government for research?
WHERE IS THE TORRENT!?!
WHERE IS THE RAPIDSHARE!?!

That’s just one.. it is all over the place now.
The server is in Britain, so Brit law is what applies, and I don't know if the Brits have anything similar.
I guess Jim Rob and the moderaters are busying looking at all the threads on this news that they have concluded, “ Ahhh heck, why not, let the truth be told “
"Al gore and others tend to lean rather more heavily than is wise upon a single, rather bad one-page essay in Science for their contention that there is a scientific consensus to the effect that most of the warming in the past half-century was anthropogenic.
The essay was by Oreskes (2004), who said that she had analyzed 928 abstracts mentioning "climate change" published in peer-reviewed journals on the Thomson ISI database between 1993 and 2003, and that none of the 928 had expressed dissent from the "consensus".
Dr. Benny Peiser of Liverpool John Moores University subsequently made a more careful enquiry. Science had been compelled to publish an erratum to the effect that the search term used by Oreskes had not been the neutral "climate change" - which returned some 12,000 articles, but the more loaded "global climate change", which returned 1,117 articles.
Of these, Dr. Peiser found that only 1% had explicitly endorsed the "consensus" as defined by Oreskes"; that almost three times as many had explicitly expressed doubt or outright disagreement; and that less than one-third had expressed explicit or implicit agreement with the "consensus"."
Spread the word!
