Just kidding. I'm sure Kate is a good canuck, even if she's only 4/5 of a real person.

5 A point I have not seen mentioned before;

We know that CRU and its cohorts were manipulating data significantly. The only people that noticed at all, before the email leaks, were the AGW skeptics. So to the extent that those free of the CRU group are doing research, they aren't even able to confirm or deny the CRU's work.

This seems pretty damning to me. If you had a large number of scientists doing independent research, as seems to be the AGW line now, one would have expected the actions of the CRU group to have shown up quickly.

6  Anyone who still uses Google, with so many other search engines to choose from, is party to their bullshit.

F*ck Google to death. Overrated purveyors of over-marketed mediocrity.

7 Hammer, krak

Revkin's "seasoned climate scientist" Judith Curry is trying to square a circle. Her advice to "young climate scientists" is to be honest with their data; it should be nothing less than to rethink ANY interest they have in this fraud short of a determination to expose every last datum to the blaring light of day.

I have every confidence that Monbiot, Hammer, Curry, et ilk will cover ass to the end and go whole hog with the next big eco-scare.

8 Sometimes a dam leaks and shows cracks before it collapses. Sometimes it looks just fine. This dam is leaking and covered with cracks. AGW fanatics have been warned. Get to high ground or drown.

9 Yeah, they've changed it. I started to type in Climategate a few days ago and the drop down already did it for me. Now, when you type in the whole word the first choice is Climate Guatemala. It still comes up with a lot of choices for Climategate though. A subtle change. What reason could they have for that if the info still shows up that you're looking for?

10
We need to put these hucksters on trial.

11 Type in "google sucks".

12 Interesting article but the NYT fails to mention the one way that the skeptics could all be silenced.

That is for the EPA and the UN to publish ALL of their data, their methods, and their calculations for independent review.

Why do they still refuse to do this? 

In addition, I find it "ironic" that a newspaper who published "leaked" classified information on the WOT and called it a "good thing" while these leaked e-mails are a "criminal activity".

13 18-1, that's being mentioned quite a bit around the 'sphere, including here where a few Alike-Thinking Great Minds noted that these "scientists" act as though their data is the recipe for Coca-cola and not to be shared. Trouble is, it's old news! Back in 2005 that ass Jones felt secure enough in his protection by the AGW racket to flat-out refuse to share his data when Steve McIntyre requested it.

You are right -- that right there should have shut the whole fraud down!

14 This is a nice climate blog ya got here.

I remember when the Lewinsky scandal first started to hit the airwaves, most of the left argued that if true Clinton should resign, but it certainly  wasn't true.

In short order we got proof, and the same talking heads were then arguing that it isn't a big deal if the president is having sex with an intern, committing perjury in a court of law, and obstructing justice in an investigation. 

I think most of the Left knows that AGW is built on, at best, questionable science, so they will circle the wagons much faster here. AGW is too convenient of a weapon to advance their agenda to let it go now.

16

I expect those independent scientists whose work was based on the now highly questionable datasets provided by the IPCC "scientists" are feeling more than a little discomfort about their own results.

You kow, that's a beautifully salient point.  Any work done that arose from Phil Jones et al and the data they monkeyed with is worthless, as well.

And, if those further scientists didn't get the methodology for temp adjustments and what not, and reviewed that first, they're doing the same quality science as the CRU Gang (that is, none at all).

17 In addition, I find it "ironic" that a newspaper who published "leaked" classified information on the WOT and called it a "good thing" while these leaked e-mails are a "criminal activity".

19 Bing picks up climategate as the first suggested term when you get to "clim...", sounds right to me.

Do a Bing.  Don't be a Google.

20 I have switched to Bing, but I still hate Microsoft and Bill Gates.

21 NYT, they're like totally still printing that right?

23
Speaking of grinning liars...

Remember when Robert Kennedy Jr called us all traitors and accused us of treason? Watch this short clip and laugh at the irony.

24 Vic, in this as in so many other current stories, we are once again drowning in irony.

25 Whatever happened to the smart military blog, it's all climategate all the time around here lately.

26
I highly recommend you watch that clip because John Stossel slaps Kennedy around, and that was two years ago.

27 And, if those further scientists didn't get the methodology for temp adjustments and what not, and reviewed that first, they're doing the same quality science as the CRU Gang (that is, none at all).

I'd like to see some sort of graphic representation, a phylogeny of sorts, of the primary literature and the depth to which the initial corrupt data has percolated throughout the entire field.

28
And in this clip, you can see Algore exposed as a naked dunce-emperor.

29 The pro-AGW idjits are starting to remind me of that fat redneck kid screaming to the pro rasslers that "it's real to me, dammit!"

30 Two AGW Scientists walk into a bar. No wait, make that four AGW Scientists walk into a bar. Nope. Hang on a minute. That can't be right. Hmmm. Ok, that's better. Seven AGW Scientists walk into a bar........

31 Kind of appropriate.

I have always refused to use Google. In the beginning I just didn't like something about the company and saw no reason to move from Yahoo, but later it became clear that Google is one of the worst, most intrusive companies on Earth. I don't trust Google as far as I can throw them and do everything I can to keep all Google software off of my computer.

I also switched to Bing, eventually, as I think Microsoft is the least bad of the big tech companies and I never liked how they got called monopolists of a field for which robust, free alternatives were always available. I just wish that Microsoft hadn't tried to peddle Bing as anything more than a regular search engine. All of that "semantic search" BS didn't do them any good.

38 Google is on borrowed time anyway. Murdoch and NewsCorp are getting ready to enter into a large partnership with Bing to de-index all of their material from Google.

Bye,bye bitch.

39 You ever talk to a stripper? When they're not marrying/divorcing a 20-year newly-inducted military man, they're ranting about any number of conspiracy theories.

Heh. I once had a stripper rant to me about her hippy mother what would get stoned and eat all the peanut butter in the house, oh and that HAARP thing in Alaska is used for CIA mind control, apparently.

40 I'm kind of cranky about seeing these widely-discussed points occurring over and over, but it's mainly because it's so obvious that it's being stated everywhere EXCEPT IN THE OPEN IN THE MSM!!! Where the fuck is the reporter chasing Al Gore down the street yelling "Kenneth, what is the frequency"!!!???

So, the necessity of re-evaluating every damn last paper or project that was based on the faulty IPCC data has been widely discussed. Are any of them feeling betrayed?

Evidently not, because I don't seem to see or hear any of them saying so -- which tells me all I need to know about these lame-asses! I cut no one any slack. That they were willing to rake in grant money and do their research without ever once trying to get hold of the underlying data tells me all I need to know about these "scientists."

It would be like Eng Lit scholars taking as a matter of faith that a new play by Shakespeare had been found on the basis that some colleague has retyped the entire text but refuses to show the actual parchment.

41 Not sure what the big deal is.  When I came up with the special theory of relativity, I didn't release the details or any equations or anything.  Why should I?  They just wanted to poke holes in it.

42 Google also jobbed "hide the decline". A few days ago that worked. Google hired an international terrorist woman to smooth things over with muslim devil worshipers.

43

Oh noes! Does that mean I have to give up my gmail account? But, but it's so fashionable!!!

No, seriously. WTF have I been thinking?

44
You can put Ed Begley, Robert Kennedy Jr, Patrick Kennedy, and a bunch of strippers in a bag, shake 'em up, and they'd all come out the same.

Wiretapping, CIA cover-ups, the evil Catholic church, global warming, etc. This is the same shit you can hear about if you talk to any stripper you meet.

45 So if everybody went and googled the following phrases:

google is in on climategate
google is hiding climategate
why is google covering up climategate?

would it have any effect or would putting "climategate" on the blacklist automatically strike out any phrase that contained it?

46 Wiretapping, CIA cover-ups, the evil Catholic church, global warming, etc. This is the same shit you can hear about if you talk to any stripper you meet.

Just a few years ago you could type in George Bush into Google search and it would list at least 5 or 6 web-sites comparing GWB to a Nazi, a war criminal ,a murderer or a chimp before it got to his Wikipedia page or his Whitehouse.gov page.

Google biased and staffed by hardcore lefties? Nawwwwww, where would anyone get that idea ?

59 As a trained PhD engineer and current scientist and modeler, I'm appalled at the behavior of the so-called scientists involved in climategate. If I did anything like that, I would get fired, and rightly so. I work in industry, so most of what I do is subject only to internal review and doesn't go beyond the company, but we have way higher standards than that. I have had a few arguments with other scientists at my job, but we put everything out in the open, including our assumptions and methods. Scientists are human beings, too, and I have seen instances where ego and obstinence have seemed to interfere somewhat, but what happened in climategate is beyond the pale. When we model in my group, we always state assumptions and limitations of the model and endeavor to give people a realistic assessment of the certainty -- uncertainty, moreso -- of the predictions. And the models often end up being quite predictive. When they are not, we don't cover it up (that would be difficult to do, anyway), but investigate reasons why the model didn't work and incorporate new findings into the model. Of course we are able to compare model predictions to reality in a shorter time frame than with climate models, but the fact is now obvious that the climate models have not been predictive. Rather than run away from that fact, any decent climate modeler would go back and reassess his/her assumptions and acknowledge that it is difficult make predictions in such a complex system as the climate. I guess in my company, if we fudged data like that, we would screwed since we'll almost certainly lose large sums of money. I'm pretty sure heads would role if such dishonesty were discovered. But the grant scientists, not so much. Instead they continue bilking the public as they receive loads of grant money and facilitate politicians' and crazy leftists' attempts to destroy entire economies. Scientists should be about the truth we observe around us and leave policy issues to the politicians. If they want to get involved in policy issues, then they should leave academia and join a think tank. As someone who got her PhD from one of the institutions involved, I'm also quite dismayed. I hope every one of the scientists involved is discredited completely and never recovers from the consequences this fraudulent behavior. (A girl can dream, no?)

60 52 "And we've learned there was no blood found on the steering wheel of Tiger's SUV -- putting into serious doubt that Tiger sustained his injuries from the crash."

That's one crazy bitch!

61 Robert Kennedy Jr.  Isn't he the same lying asshole who ran into a DC street sweeper while drunk and the capitol police took him home?

62 With TW, the MSM has asked other golfers to comment and the comments are sort of like "why would you leave your own home at that hour, nothing good can come from that and there is always the counch".   Heard that one on the radio news...

64 We're going to see more and more of this stuff, as current and future generations who end up at the helm of information and technology defend and promote their pseudo-religion.

i call bullshit,

i never dated Ed Begley, Robert Kennedy Jr, or Patrick Kennedy

67
No, that was Patches Kennedy...high on Ambien.

68 If you get your money only from grants then you feel pressure to have your findings line up with the attitudes of the grant givers.  This stuff must be important as there are "grant writers" who make a living writing your grant application and assuring that you will get the grant.  Now if you can't even write yoru own application then it would seem that this is crazy stuff.

69

I expect those independent scientists whose work was based on the now highly questionable datasets provided by the IPCC "scientists" are feeling more than a little discomfort about their own results.

And as an added facet (I'm aware of the conspiritorial tinge to this argument - mock me.) that there may also be an aspect of this argument, related to much that is going on now in the world, where the bottom line is not climate at all.  It is about secular morality.  It is about accepted and non-accepted behaviors. 

Don't consume, Don't polute, Don't be religious (irrational religions accepted), Don't be nationalistic, Don't kill the whales, Kill the fetuses, Mock and shun established morality, Believe what your told to believe, etc.

If the answer is yes, unlike me, you are not qualified to argue or debate the issue of Climate Change.

I bid you a fine adieu.

I believe you. If we've learned one thing from our friend AmishDude it's that anybody can graduate from lawyer-school.

76 Of course we are able to compare model predictions to reality in a shorter time frame than with climate models, but the fact is now obvious that the climate models have not been predictive.

An outpouring of skeptical scientists who are members of the American Chemical Society (ACS) are revolting against the group’s editor-in-chief — with some demanding he be removed — after an editorial appeared claiming “the science of anthropogenic climate change is becoming increasingly well established.”

...

ACS member scientist Dr. Howard Hayden, a Physics Professor Emeritus from the University of Connecticut: “Baum’s remarks are particularly disquieting because of his hostility toward skepticism, which is part of every scientist’s soul. Let’s cut to the chase with some questions for Baum: Which of the 20-odd major climate models has settled the science, such that all of the rest are now discarded? [...] Do you refer to ‘climate change’ instead of ‘global warming’ because the claim of anthropogenic global warming has become increasingly contrary to fact?”

Jesus Christ these Global Warming guys are amatures. When I finished building my first telephone, I quickly called my brother to see if it worked. When I heard the sound of his voice from a mile and a half away I gathered up my phone and equipment and rode my horse over to his house. Once there I had him help me with my new experiment, digging a hole in his backyard to bury the telephone and wires. I told him that we had to dig it extra large so we could cover it with a heavy tarp so as to avoid damage. Once we finished I pulled out a .44 magnum and shot him in his left temple. I buried both his body and all the equipment from my experiment in his backyard where they are safe to this day from any "skeptic" or "denier" that might prove me wrong.

119 Of course we are able to compare model predictions to reality in a shorter time frame than with climate models, but the fact is now obvious that the climate models have not been predictive.

When we built "models" one of the first things we had to do was enter an input from past data and watch it run. If the output did not match the past data we knew the model was bad and it was back to the drawing board.

I understand that they tried this with their current models and they failed utterly.  Yet they still use the models.

I am the worlds # 1 climate scientist. Call me now for my free book and DVD showing you how to get free government money! It is so easy a caveman could do it!!!! Who wouldn't want free money call today!!! Call now and for a limited time I will include your own suit with questions marks on it!

134

So I'm thinking that when people (I just can't call them scientists anymore) started to really study climate and tried to make computer models, they found out it was complicated and didn't work. But some politicians NEEDED a particular answer, and you know (nudge-nudge, wink-wink) if we start getting the answers we KNOW are true, there's lots more research grants and prestige. So the word went out to the funding agencies - if the grant application talks about global warming - APPROVE IT! That's been happening for what, 2 decades now? You want to study the migration habits of red squirrels? Sorry. You want to study the effects of global warming on the migration habits of red squirrels? APPROVED.

137 7 Hammer, krak

Revkin's "seasoned climate scientist" Judith Curry is trying to square a circle. Her advice to "young climate scientists" is to be honest with their data; it should be nothing less than to rethink ANY interest they have in this fraud short of a determination to expose every last datum to the blaring light of day.

I have every confidence that Monbiot, Hammer, Curry, et ilk will cover ass to the end and go whole hog with the next big eco-scare.

Not sure if this is directed at me or if there is another Hammer involved...I'm a skeptic...just posting the link. 

138 If you use news.google.com you still get climategate, etc. Guess they only took it off the general searches.

139 Funny even when you get a search that starts showing the scandal it all links to stories on Fox or right wing websites. They do have a total media blackout going on this. Nothing to see here move along. Look oh no someone crashed a White House party!!!!

Posted by: Scopes, the talking monkey at November 28, 2009 01:28 PM (z37MR) No. Believe it or not, we discuss such portentous topics such as clothes, skin care, and the like in our spare time. Yeah, quite a few of us are chicks. We don't really discuss political issues, but I'm sure I've let it slip that I think the whole thing is a crock. Like throughout earth's history, the earth's climate was constant till the 70s. Uhuh.

Looking around, it  seems like virtually all of the national/internaional "green" movements use the IPCC numbers/arguments. The baby and the bathwater are one in the same. Throw it all out.

151 136 "Michaele and Tareq Salahi DC Wedding Celebration mini-version" Is this them? Yep, that's them. Almost 2,000 guests at the wedding. If I were the bride, I would kill myself. To each his own. I wonder if they're actually "important people" or just wannabes.

152 Google results for "Adam Lambert": 8.9 million Google results for "Climategate": 10.9 million

153 154

But how many of those are Adam Lambert deniers?

154 My understanding is that the IPCC largely relies on CRU, but isn't entirely based on CRU data.  Other research was used to establish the IPCC figures as well.  What portion of that other pre-IPCC data is CRU derived (sort of like tracking money that comes from Soros, but is channeled through three or four other organizations before it all ends up in the same spot)? My guess is that it is substantial, but I think this revelation makes it important that we find out.

155 My understanding is that the IPCC largely relies on CRU, but isn't entirely based on CRU data.  Other research was used to establish the IPCC figures as well.  What portion of that other pre-IPCC data is CRU derived...

And our EPA uses the IPCC. They have no data of their own. What is NOT known by most people because the MSM has been mis-reporting this since it was written, but the SCOTUS case did NOT tell the EPA that they must regulate CO2 and call it pollution.

What they ruled (badly) was that the EPA did have the authority to regulate it and that IF they wanted to NOT regulate it they had to base that decision on more than someone's opinion.

If I am not mistaken, I believe that EPA's mandate included a requirement that they prove an effluent was pollution before they could regulate it. They have not done that and the court took the opposite stance in one of their (in)famous 5-4 decisions.

156 BTW; it has been my opinion that the Bush DOJ mishandled that case on purpose. That way they could have cover for supporting the AGW scam and blaming it on SCOTUS.

I mean, arguing that the original law did not authorize them to regulate CO2 was pretty lame in itself.

157 Hi African Chick..
They're just wannabes. Google yahoo dogpile ask bingle bing  IxQuick them!

158 Hi sickinmass!

159 So does this make Google a Climategate Denier?

160 I understand that they tried this with their current models and they failed utterly.  Yet they still use the models.

Theoretically we should be flooded out to the Appalachian and rocky mountains now
Clearly there is a flaw in the Mother Nature 2.5 program. 

161 Google = MSM

Bing = Fox News

Bings drop down gives climategate popping up easily.

162 Thanks for the heads up abut Bing - I've made it my homepage. Screw Google.

163 Don't subsidize EVIL. Give Bing a try.

I switched a couple of months ago because of Bing's superior results and deleted my Google bookmarks.

166 The Science Bubble Explodes

I'm stepping off the Google bandwagon today.

So, what's best?  Opinion appears to be varied.

168 Bing it is.

169

Bing scores!  First thing  Wow.

ClimateGate's Michael Mann Being Investigated by Penn State

170 ClimateGate's Michael Mann Being Investigated by Penn State


Aiiyeee!  My balls won't survive the dipping.

171

I switched to Bing a while back specifically because of googles bias.

172

I think part of the climategate fallout will be from all those scientists not directly involved but who have repeated the lies out of necessity, say, because it's loosely related to what they do.  For example an astrobiologist might want to use the methods or findings to assist in understanding of the climates of other worlds.   They're not excused for ignoring proper scientific skepticsm, but they felt some degree of coercion.  They're going to be pissed.  When the shit hit the fan, they got egg on their faces too.  (Classic moron mixed metaphor category: a perfect "10.") 

Expect a rapid onslaught of articles from these people, pissed as hell and distancing themselves from the blast zone.  They won't be published in scientific journals for the most part, I would expect, since they'll be more commentary than for the purpose of advancing their science.  But some will.

Geebus, I bet they're pissed.  They knew it all along, I bet, but they felt their hands were tied.   After all, you gotta put macaroni and cheese on the table.

They're receiving a torrent of nasty emails from people like me.  Like this one I wrote at #583, heh.

173 Heh, "google bias" is a suggested search term.  HA!

174 Penn State? Isn't that in Pennsylvania with all those bitter white racist idiots clinging to their guns and religion?

Nothing to see here, I asked the Magic 8 Ball about AGW and it came back
 "All signs point to YES"

175

Bing suggests "Climategate" as #1 when you type c-l-i.

Or is that because of a previous search I did?

176

Or is that because of a previous search I did?

Apparently not.  Typed in h-u-m and got "humana", etc.  Typed in "humboldt" and got Humboldt State U. etc.  Typed in h-u-m again and got the same list as at first, i.e. h-u-m did not suggest "Humboldt" just because I had searched that before.

177 If you want to see smart people shamelessly employing one logical fallacy and shady debate tactic after another, I really recommend that RealClimate blog. Those guys are really really good at putting that veneer of authority and sophistication over utter bullshit. My favorite at the moment is one warmist demanding that a "denier" provide specific references to data sets that have been "suppressed" by warmist scientists when the "denier" originally only pointed out the undeniably true: warmist scientists refuse to share their data except among true believers. The warmist also demands to know which laws of physics warmist scientists "bent" because "AGW follows from the known physics." Never mind that the issue is that the evidence is inconclusive and there is a high likelihood that it has been fudged to paint a certain warmist picture. I mean it's some great comedy over at that place.

178

There is NO global warming.  Any bullshit these pussy libtard egg heads serve you is just that. BULLSHIT.  If the world is not getting warmer nor has it gotten warmer since they started squealing like gay boys on there first butt date.   They WANTED to believe something so they manufactured it.  Unfortunately NOTHING backs their bullshit.  The globe has NOT gotten warmer for 11 plus years.  The same EXACT PERIOD OF TIME, that they have been making the claims that it has.  There is NO EVIDENCE to the contrary, merely speculation, and computer models that are nonsense.

179

The tribalism underpinning this thing reminds me of the Sokal Affair.  I wonder if Sokal wears a white hat, and I wonder if he's written a negatively critical article.  If not, when, and where can I see it?

Alan Sokal is one hell of a bullshit buster.

181 I'm not a big Twitter user but I've been watching the site over the past week and I've never seen 'Climategate' (or any variation) as one of the popular 'Trending Topics'.

"177

Just tried it, Climategate is indeed the top result and I don't use Bing.

This fish stinks from the head back.  Looks to be yet another manbearpig and Soros clusterfuck.  This crap won't go away until these hucksters are put away.

183 I just tried it and it dropped to "Climategate" after I typed "Cli" so either they put it back up, or it just drops by freqency of those who search for the term (which is what I think). So keep googling it!

184 Also, they removed "hide the decline" from youtube's most watched list...

185 Bing suggests "Climategate" as #1 when you type c-l-i. Or is that because of a previous search I did? Same thing happened on Google just now, which strongly suggests that they both use the same search engine, and frequency of query determines the drop order. I'm not really buying this conspiracy. I think if enough people queried, "andrew sullivan dickalicious" would pop up as well. God know why they would though.

186 And yes, I just googled "andrew..." because I wanted to see if anyone has...fortunately, no dropdown. Thank god.

187 Google be damned, have you noticed Fox hasn't had this story on their web page AT ALL for four days?!  They're actually covering it less than the LSM is!  What the hell?

188 http://tinyurl.com/ylbttzf

The plot thickens...will this be a whitewash or a real investigation.

Exit question:  If the AGW worshipers were on the other side of an email find like this, wouldn't they expect full explanations and demand the "science" be fully reviewed?

189 You know how the fat bastards claim to have "lost" half of their raw data?  That's because they didn't even pay my bill for taking care of that!  I sure as hell wasn't going to finish the job.
James Hansen, though, there's a man who knows how to spend money.

190 Someone may have already asked this question, but:  Isn't Al Gore on the board of directors for Google?

That explains it all about Google.

191 As for Google, those @&%$ are &@%$ and can $%#@ my %@&$.

As for media coverage and liberal adherence to ideology over science, do you recall the amazing scientific discovery that adult stem cells could be manipulated to emulate embryonic stem cells?  I recall Rush declaring the debate over.  There was no further need to destroy embryos.  But did that stop them? NO!

The libtards didn't care that medical science could perform research without destroying embryos.  They wanted to destroy embryos, and spend our tax dollars to do so.  BHO even lifted the ban on embryonic stem cell research AFTER it was discovered that adult stem cells would work just as well.

They don't care about the science.  Liberalism is a religion and a mental disorder.

192

I just went to Google.com and typed in c-l-i-m at which point Google suggested "climategate".

I use Bing too, but I'm not sure there's a vast leftwing conspiracy at work here.  Just sayin...

193  

194

That's because they didn't even pay my bill for taking care of that!

Hey, I got 10% of that action.  If you get paid, don't you be cutting me out.

195 Google is oddly behind the curve on a lot of news stories, I am not sure what their algorithm is but it seems to be deliberately slow to pick up the slack. Some stuff they definitely manipulate and suppress but this one doesn't seem like there's anything there.

196 Updated with the news Google has found the term "climategate" again.

197

When I first read this post, "climategate" did not come up on Google, but now it does.

I guess in my company, if we fudged data like that, we would screwed since we'll almost certainly lose large sums of money. I'm pretty sure heads would role if such dishonesty were discovered.

This reminds me of my reaction in 1992 to Hillary's "I don't remember nothing about that client and have no idea where records might be." I'm not a lawyer, but I was working at a law firm at the time and I knew that it was total b.s. How anyone who'd ever stepped foot in a law firm could even consider her excuses for a second was beyond me.

198 I just went to Google.com and typed in c-l-i-m at which point Google suggested "climategate".

A) Inferior technology.
B) They didn't think they'd get caught and put the original back chop chop to save face before it exploded in their faces.

Take your pick.  I'd give it 50/50.

199

Anyone wanting to mindmeld with the AGW zealots need only go to ClimateProgress and see how they reacted to Curry's piece:

If you want to have some fun, ask your libtard in-laws who was Vice President when the US Senate rejected Kyoto.  Then ask them, what is the only actual job that the VP is granted by the US Constitution?

Sure, I know that the Senate rejected Kyoto unanimously and the VP can only vote in the case of a tie... but shit, there's no way in hell they will know that!

205 A bit of a tangent -

Get out of the weeds, ain't no 'model' here at all, just an extrapolation of manipulated temps.

If they had a 'model' they would only need 'start' temps of any given year to run the model's engine, and test its effectiveness.

Nope, just a bunch a raw temp, washed thoroughly to get the results they wanted.

Shiite, even a fifth grader should be able to put a bunch of dots on a graph (year vs. temp), and draw a straight line... guess it takes a "climatologist" to bend the curve.

Incidentally - note that the 'program' files in the release all have the file name extension *.PRO. Google it, HT Rosie.

206 On extrapolation of data -

I could take a wooden beam, put bags of sand on it, measure deflection, and extrapolate deflection vs. load.

That would not demonstrate any understanding of the underlying mechanics nor the failure load, but it would demonstrate one's dangerous ignorance.

207 NOTE-I tried typing “clim” as you suggest in your "UPDATE," but did not get “climategate” as claimed.

Maybe Google “fixed” that bug?

208 beijing massage  slewing rings

209 This whole google auto-suggest thing is not quite fixed for everyone.   This might be a domain thing, but in Canada, google.com is routed to google.ca.   I'm still not seeing climategate in the auto-suggest.

But it gets more intriguing.   Yesterday morning I switched to bing and it showed climategate in the auto-suggest after just a few letters.   Yet by the afternoon, bing was not showing it either.      I don't think you can blame that on a bad/slow algorithm.     Once again bing.com detects I'm from Canada (it gives me the option to search 'only in Canada'. 
I'd be curious to hear if others are seeing the same thing from Canada or other domains.

At least in Canada, this story is not over.
