They know. It is like ACORN, as long as the Brown Shirt Media doesn’t cover it they can pretend not to know but many of us have been rubbing the salt in every chance we get.

[[How about making a little joke, after all Gorebalism is a joke too. Go look at the thread I linked, chuckle, smile a bit and have a good day...]]

Ever see them ovie ‘grumpy old men’? I was the producers case study for the movie :) J/K I’ve got a great sense of humor (if a little warped at times)- just didn’t know if you were pointing out my spelling mistakes- I’m afraid I’m incorageable when it coems to checking my spelling (I spent too much time as editor of school newspaper- and dreaded every minute of it- checking the spelling al lthe time- got fed up with it- I’ve just no patients for it anymore)

Dr. Jones, we have a problem. You are a fraud!

He's a "fraud" in the Madoff style - AKA a criminal.

Perhaps a coalition of Attorneys General should investigate Dr. Jones. I'm sure one will form any minute. /sarc

The following line of IDL source code came from the leaked East Anglia CRU codebase:

valadj=[0.,0.,0.,0.,0.,-0.1,-0.25,-0.3,0.,- 0.1,0.3,0.8,1.2,1.7,2.5,2.6,2.6,2.6,2.6,2.6]*0.75 ; fudge factor

The comment after the semicolon ('fudge factor') is in the original source code. Note how the later time periods are adjusted upward.

If you input random noise into this code you would get a hockey-stick graph. See http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=1447

Now, there could be a benign reason for the 'fudge factor'. Maybe CRU needed to correct systematic bias in the raw data. But unless the reason is clearly documented, explained, and justified in the published research, it's going to look damn suspicious.

AFAIK it has never been adequately explained.
