Ross McKitrick takes Gleick to the woodshed: http://climateaudit.org/2012/02/20/peter-gleick-confesses/#comment-324812

From the excrementable Guardian (http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2012/feb/21/peter-gleick-admits-leaked-heartland-institute-documents?newsfeed=true)

"Heartland has been subverting well-understood science for years," wrote Scott Mandia, co-founder of the climate science rapid response team. "They also subvert the education of our school children by trying to ;'teach the controversy' where none exists."

He went on: "Peter Gleick, a scientist who is also a journalist just used the same tricks that any investigative reporter uses to uncover the truth. He is the hero and Heartland remains the villain. He will have many people lining up to support him."

Don't worry, Dr Gleick, Supermandia is here to save you!

(Note that the climategate emails were unlikely to have been stolen, but probably released by a whistleblower).

That was really great. Enjoyed that immensely. Thanx, palmer. I had the pleasure of meeting McKitrick a couple of years ago as he and Stephen McIntyre gave a media presentation at the Dirksen Senate Office Buildin. I specifically thanked McKitrick for his defense of scientific integrity. Nice guy.
