Hail to the Chiefio
Dec 11, 2009 Climate: CRU Climate: Surface FOI
Chiefio has some more interesting analysis of one of the emails, showing how CRU, NCDC and the IPCC are all in each other's pockets. He also finds more evidence that CRU has been "economic with the actualite" in their responses to FoI requests.

I say there, your wholiness;
If you are in the mood, , Cheifio is greatly in need of your transliterative skills.
He makes no claim to be an excellent communicator, but his deconstruction of the 'global warming record' is of equal importance to the heroic whistle-blower within EAU.
Wish I could have observed your BBC thing;
Not available in the colonies...
THanks for your efforts.

Ah, windansea, do you know Professor Schneider?
"Just as with Global Warming, we find Schneider in the vanguard of the Global Cooling doomsayers during the 1970s.
It was only when global temperatures took an upward turn around 1980 that Schneider and others quickly made a career change and became passionate advocates of impending catastrophe, only this time from warming, not cooling. But then, opportunism is a trait of politicians rather than scientists.
During the Ice Age Scare of the 1970s, Schneider was one of it's foremost advocates. He published a book titled "The Genesis Strategy" at this time, warning of the coming glaciation, and wrote glowing a testimonial on the back cover of a popular `Ice Age' book of the time - (Ponte, Lowell. "The Cooling", Prentice Hall, N.J., USA, 1976), in which the author claimed that the climatic cooling from 1940 to the 1970s was but the precursor to the main event - the coming Ice Age.
Schneider was one of the first in the scientific community to warn of the impending Ice Age with this paper -
Schneider S. & Rasool S., "Atmospheric Carbon Dioxide and Aerosols - Effects of Large Increases on Global Climate", Science, vol.173, 9 July 1971, p.138-141"
That's from www.john-daly.com
And don't overlook his famous commitment to truth in science:-
""To capture the public imagination,
we have to offer up some scary scenarios,
make simplified dramatic statements
and little mention of any doubts one might have.
Each of us has to decide the right balance
between being effective,
and being honest."
- Leading greenhouse advocate, Dr Stephen Schneider
( in interview for "Discover" magagzine, Oct 1989)"
What really bothers me is that Tiger Woods gets crucified for liking sex and women, while the UN and governments of the world get off scot free perpetuating this massive AGW swindle that will cost taxpayers trillions of dollars. So much for journalism. Where is the investigative reporting into this serious matter that will affect millions of lives? Where is the peer-review in the scientific process of climate change? No, instead Tiger Woods gets front page coverage in the News, Sports AND Entertainment sections of all the mainstream media channels. Something is very wrong; a revolution may be required to get rid of these climate change hucksters.
