I can’t understand these people, when there’s a history of climate that goes back millions of years when crust samples are dug up, that show warmer and cooler climates than today. And as far as we know, the dinosaurs didn’t have SUVs. Cavemen didn’t have SUVs, either, yet they still dealt with periods of global climate change.

hockey sticks died when they quit making them out of wood and went with the $300 composites

Mann is still defending his bogus “hockey stick”. As someone recently said, he shouldn’t be at Penn State but in the State Pen.

20 years from now “An Inconvenient Truth” will be shown at College Theaters on a double bill with “Reefer Madness”.

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed

(and hence clamorous to be led to safety)
by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins,
all of them imaginary.

~ H. L. Mencken (1880 – 1956)
Journalist – magazine editor

What it really should be is the beginning of the major housecleaning necessary if the field is to have any scientific credibility, but that may have to await a general reformation of academia itself. It would help, though, if we get a new government next year that cuts off funding to such charlatans, and the institutions that whitewash their unscientific behavior.

Emphases mine, but the fuel for global warming is indeed green. Greenbacks that is...

Beware the hockey stick graph! Almost all hockey stick graphs, no matter the subject, are phony and are designed to produce panic and support the presenter’s viewpoint. Mann’s example was so egregious that investigating researchers found random numbers entered using his algorithm resulted in the same hockey stick pattern.

Anytime someone tries to use a hockey stick reference, it’s always bull shit.

The hockey stick is dead? I didn’t even know it was sick. Did beavers eat it?
