Hadley CRU has apparently been hacked –[epic fraud?]

“Lol- not gonna let me live that one down eh? :)”

And in the Sunday papers, no less.
The fiction that there is pro-AGW "consensus" in the scientific community is now shattered. And with doubt may come hesitation to commit $Trillions on AGW remediation.
I’ve been saying so for years and have been called some really hateful names for it. I will expect groveling apologies.

They took the risk of fabricating data for the same reason that other Obama supporters put on masks and rob banks -- it's a way to make money. And that's why they need to go to jail.
They knew full well that if they concluded that Man had little effect on climate change, that the variableness of the Sun was the primary causative agent, that there would be much less grant money than if their conclusions went the other way. They also knew that they had to suppress dissent in order the manufacture "consensus", to please their political masters.
The rot runs deeper than just these scientists. The rot goes to the core of how research is conducted these days. In any research with political implications, you damn well better get the results that promote further funding. And yes I know that grants are issued by peer grant committees and so on -- the bottom line is that government agencies and Congress decide HOW MUCH and WHETHER grant money exists at all.
I thought you were kidding me about how I spelled huge- I’d spelled it ‘hugh’ by mistake lol
lol, no, hugh is a Free Republic meme, like “series” and “beeber”!
My Mother is a retired nurse; she used to say (over 30 years ago) that MS would have been cured long ago, if there were not a Jerry Lewis Telethon. As long as there is more money in R&D than in the cure; the cure will never be found.
Today, we are predicting vaccies for Altzheimers, AIDS, Asthma and Macular Degeneration. Yet, no real progress has been made on Multiple Scerrosis.
I work in the technology sector - we manage to make regular breakthroghs - becuause if we fail, we don’t have a job anymore. We also have no political affiliations. One would hope that all R&D areas would have the purity that one finds in the Electrical Technology sectors.

The rot is centralized in Associated Press journalism, with its self-falsifying claims of objectivity and its lust for crisis to report.Journalism and ObjectivityWhy the Associated Press is Pernicious to the Public Interest
