But the Penn State inquiry board said the term trick is used by scientists and mathematicians to refer to an insight that solves a problem. The so-called trick was nothing more than a statistical method used to bring two or more different kinds of data sets together in a legitimate fashion by a technique that has been reviewed by a broad array of peers in the field, the panel said.
Also there is the "Journal of Irreproducible Results" article on how to choose the right type of graph paper to produce the results you want (random data can be made to appear linear with circular graphs, runaway numbers level off with logrithmic paper, etc.).

“...faith in the science of climate change...”
Great way to put it! Global warming is a faith. The real damage is what global warming is doing to science.
Call 60 Minutes.
It’s a trillion dollar scam. The grifters can skim a lot off of that as Western wealth is funneled to Third World dictatorship in the name of global “equality” for St. Gaia.

“....a second panel will convene to determine whether his behavior undermined public faith in the science of climate change, the university said Wednesday.”
Does this have the smell of a religious inquiry for spreading heretical beliefs to anyone besides me?
The NYT says he was absolved. Here is more, not from the Times;

"faculty board did not look into the science of climate change itself, the university said in announcing its results."
Oh Please! If they didn't look into the science, then how could they clear the man of cheating the science?
Looks like just another fraud and hoax against the public is being covered up with cow dooky.
Hooo Hooo Hooo Hooo, Haaa Haaa Haaa Haaa, Heee Heee Heee Heee!
Not hardly.
Cheers!
You reacted to this news, so I inferred that you disagree with the findings. I asked which.
For example, he provided the data that some had claimed he'd destroyed. Should he have been found guilty anyway?!?
I hold Dr. Mann in extremely low regard, yet I concur with the findings on this group of the charges.
