Science has become a contest for grant money. Finding truth is not even a priority anymore.

The things one learns on FR -- I had no idea hunters add urine as bait in order to attract federal dollars.

After infrastructure worked so well, no limit on imaginative language.

Undocumented workers instead of welfare frauds.

LOL! I agree, very poorly written!

And I gotta check the expiration date on my doe urine-- I may have to buy some more before the rut this season!

"In the scientific community, we're very cautious people,"...

That caught my eye also. Utter tripe.

I suggest that people start using the more scientifically correct phrase,

Solar Induced Climate Self-Adjustment

For the Trump administration, this presents an opportunity to cut ALL funding for climate change.

“Yes, the climate changes. No need to spend billions for you to tell us that. Funding over.” Or, the administration can do the right thing and demand that the NSF present their findings within 30 days or lose all funding. In addition, the “opposition” can present their findings.

Let’s really find out what is going on.

Please completely remove all public funding for climate science. It is a fraud.

If “climate change” is “settled science” supported by consensus, then why is further research necessary?

Four other climate researchers acknowledged that they had personally removed the term "climate change" from funding proposals or public summaries in the last year, or had advised graduate students who had done so. All were concerned that if they disclosed their names, it could negatively impact their future funding competitiveness.

Too late, a******s! You can't purge the entire internet.

Boo freaking Hoo Hoo!

Nameless Climate Change "Experts" can be safely ignored.

Named "Climate Change "experts" can be verified for previous names.

Both google and wikipedia are great!

Ha ha freaking HA!
