The Skeptic's Eleventh Commandment 1:03

Try to guess at the final words to the [Global Warming] Skeptic's 11th commandment before the words appear! Hint: comes from a famous speech by an American politician.

Warmies have picked a new name for themselves, we should now refer to the as Climate Hawks. Hmm, they are certainly hawking something but it smells like the same old rotting carrion, and the only bird involved will be the one we flip in their direction.

Prince Charles's green comitments bear fruit for the family finances.

There's an interesting documentary showing on the Histry Channel + 1 at 12 today called Ancient Apocalypse. It's about the drought that ended the Maya and it's connection to the LIA. Repeated again at 5 and 6 this evening. For Sky users that's channels 529 and 530.

Interesting blog on the Telegraph comment pages from one of the more mainstream commentators:

You might want to put up a post about another smear attempt. Read this discussion of a letter from Mann, Ehrlich and Rahmstorf to Nature.

Not only is this blatant ad hominem, it's bad ad hominem. As far as I can tell, the only connection that Greenberg has with the Marshall Institute, is that he once participated in a roundtable discussion, which the Marshall Institute published. The fact that Mann et al. linked to sourcewatch.org, which exists solely to provide "dirt" against any non-consensus thinker, is enough to discredit anything they wrote.

It's another in the vein of the Anderegg et al. PNAS "blacklist" article.
