Mann is truly on the horns of a dilemma. If he refuses to reveal his data and methodology then his theory on climate warming becomes suspect.

If he reveals it—and competent scientists can prove the data and methodology are flawed—then the original source of the climate warming argument that it is human intervention that causes warming is destroyed.

He has a third option - drop the lawsuit.

That’s probably what will happen. Hopefully Steyn can recover his legal fees in that event.

I thought Mann’s methodology was to cherry-pick the 6% of the samples that represent his desired outcome, and ignore the 94% that don’t? (something on the order 5 of 87 tree ring samples)

Mann doesn't have to worry... he could say anything and democrats will still believe him.

Another option is that he could be proven correct after a peer review...

Sorry, I couldn’t even type that will a straight face. That option has zero percent chance of being true.

Could we perhaps say he will be. . . "Gored???"
