The Register is widely read in the US by software pros. This will give the story legs in the US, despite the boycott by the US MSM.

The IPCC has started work on the preparation of its Fifth Assessment Report (AR5).

We are currently looking for experts who can act as authors:

Chasing stuff...NY Times has something today according to Joh and Ken...still looking..did find this:

Who’s Conflicted Now?

*************************************EXCERPT*************************************

The immediate peg for this question is the flap surrounding Rajendra K. Pachauri, the chairman of the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, who has been accused of reaping financial benefits from hyped warnings about climate disaster, most notably the I.P.C.C. warning that glaciers could disappear by 2035. Dr. Pachauri has denied the accusations and the I.P.C.C. has retracted the glacier warning, but the controversy doesn’t seem to be abating. The Sunday Times of London reported that, before the glacier warning was retracted, Dr. Pachauri’s research institute used “bogus claims that Himalayan glaciers were melting to win grants worth hundreds of thousands of pounds.”

I’ve previously wondered why so many on the green side of the climate debate were so willing to play the conflict-of-interest card, as Dr. Pachauri was doing quite recently himself. It struck me as a risky political strategy — because there seemed to me to be more money to be made on the green side — as well a needless diversion from the scientific debate. So while I see some justice in this argument coming back to bite Dr. Pachauri, I still wish both sides — and the journalists who cover any kind of scientific dispute — would pay less attention to money.
