You’re right.
There are so many people invested in “Anthropogenic Global Warming” that this story will be a non-starter here.
I disagree. I think this story will gather legs as more and more scientists that have been "shelved" are now free to speak openly to this scam.
It starts with bloggers, but I foresee the scientific community using this to vindicate honest scientific practices that, for too long, have been pushed aside by the Global Warming phonies.
