“Deep Climate. Very clever.”
Deep Hoax would be more descriptive. This hoax was not just a superficial obfuscation of a single research result, but instead a RICO-style conspiracy to defraud through a coordinated series of actions that started deep in the scientific process (i.e., at the raw data level) by a few scientists who were deeply involved (not peripheral players) in building the evidentiary case for a policy response to global warming of unprecedented scale (read cost), producing fraudulent model predictions that got piled so high and so deep that we were assured there was no need for further debate on such “settled” science. Anyone challenging Al Gore’s pontificating on this point was in deep doo-doo, inviting the pervasive and unceasing scorn of know-it-alls among the MSM punditry and Beltway “insiders.”
