"E-mails suggest science not faked, but doubt lingered; Climate scientists stonewalled foes, shaped message" by Seth Borenstein, and Raphael Satter, Associated Press | December 13, 2009
LONDON - E-mails stolen from climate scientists show they stonewalled skeptics and discussed hiding data - but the messages don’t support assertions that the science of global warming was faked, according to an exhaustive review by the Associated Press....
First of all, they were LEAKED by a CONSCIENTIOUS WHISTLE-BLOWER!
And if the AP is just going to FLAT-OUT LIE, well, CAN'T BELIEVE a WORD AP PRINTS anymore!!!!
Watch: Hide The Decline
The exchanges don’t undercut the vast body of evidence showing the world is warming because of man-made greenhouse gas emissions. The scientists were keenly aware of how their work would be viewed and used, and, just like politicians, went to great pains to shape their message.
Yup, FAITH in ANOTHER INSTITUTION SHATTERED!!!!

Yup, CAN'T TRUST ANY institutions anymore!!!
Sometimes, they sounded more like schoolyard taunts than scientific tenets. The scientists were so convinced by their science and so driven by a cause “that unless you’re with them, you’re against them,’’ said Mark Frankel, director of scientific freedom, responsibility and law at the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
Oh, and WHERE DID WE HEAR THAT before, hmmmm?
He also reviewed the communications. Frankel saw “no evidence of falsification or fabrication of data, although concerns could be raised about some instances of very ‘generous interpretations.’ ’’ Some e-mails expressed doubts about the quality of individual temperature records or why models and data didn’t quite match. Part of this is the normal give-and-take of research, but skeptics challenged how reliable certain data was.
Keep shoveling, AP! Keep making that credibility hole deeper!
The e-mails were stolen from the computer network server of the climate research unit at the University of East Anglia in southeast England, an influential source of climate science, and were posted online last month. The university shut down the server and contacted the police.
It is just ONE LIE after ANOTHER -- and REPEATING THEM, too!!
The AP studied all the e-mails for context, with five reporters reading and rereading them - about 1 million words in total.
Yeah, SURE THEY DID!
Why should we believe a LYING, AGENDA-PUSHING FLAKKER, huh?
One of the most disturbing elements suggests an effort to avoid sharing scientific data with critics skeptical of global warming. It is not clear whether any data were destroyed; two US researchers denied it.
Well, they ADMITTED to TOSSING a WHOLE PILE; however, if you didn't already know that and thought you were learning about the world by reading a newspaper....
Excuse me, they OMITTED what?
The e-mails show that several mainstream scientists repeatedly suggested keeping their research materials away from opponents who sought it under American and British public records law.
Of course, if it PROVED THEIR POINT they would have SHOWN IT OFF like a lady with new boobs!
It raises a science ethics question because free access to data is important so that others can repeat experiments as part of the scientific method....
Yeah, they needed to HIDE the DECLINE!!!!
And the QUESTIONS have been ANSWERED!!
This crop of scientists and their MSM promoters are the BIGGEST LIARS in WORLD HISTORY!!!!
The e-mails also showed a stunning disdain for global warming skeptics.
It is called ELITISM and it STINKS to HIGH HEAVEN!!!!
One scientist practically celebrates the news of the death of one critic, saying, “In an odd way this is cheering news!’’
Yeah, but these are the LOVEY-DOVEY PEOPLE who want to SAVE YOU and the PLANET!!!!
************
A third scientist said the next time he sees a certain skeptic at a scientific meeting, “I’ll be tempted to beat the crap out of him. Very tempted.’’
Yeah, that is having RATIONAL, SCIENTIFIC FACTS on YOUR SIDE, huh?
And they compared contrarians to communist-baiting Senator Joseph McCarthy and Somali pirates....
Translation: The FART-MIST F***S are ASSHOLES -- and anyone who has TALKED TO ONE KNOWS THAT!!!!!!!!!

Hey, DON'T BELIEVE ME!!
Use your OWN SENSES!!!
"Maine's wet summer could mean wet firewood
PORTLAND, Maine --Firewood experts are cautioning that last summer's wet weather might result in more smoke and less heat coming out of people's wood stoves this winter. Peter Lammert of the Maine Forest Service told the Portland Press Herald there's a good chance that a lot of firewood that was stacked and stored last spring and summer hasn't fully seasoned because of the soaking rains in June and July.
Yeah, we NEVER REALLY HAD a SUMMER this year!!
Firewood that has a high moisture content -- because it hasn't dried properly or is green -- generates less heat because the stove has to first burn off the moisture, which causes the wood to sizzle, smoke and release foamy bubbles. Officials say wet firewood can also clog chimneys with creosote much faster, while putting out more pollution.

"Gore cites studies predicting polar ice may disappear in 5 years; Earlier warnings put date at 2030" by Charles J. Hanley, Associated Press | December 15, 2009
COPENHAGEN - One US government scientist yesterday questioned the new prediction as too severe, but....
In the summer of 2007, the Arctic ice cap dwindled to a record-low minimum extent of 1.7 million square miles in September. The melting in 2008 and 2009 was not as extensive, but still ranked as the second- and third-greatest decreases on record....
In other words, the GLACIERS are COMING BACK!!
Readers, I'M TIRED of FINDING the LINKS!!!
THEY are the LIARS, not me!!!!
Asked for comment, one US government scientist questioned what he called this “aggressive’’ projection. “It’s possible but not likely,’’ said Mark Serreze of the US National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder, Colorado. “We’re sticking with 2030.’’
What, AL GORE GASSING OUT FART-MISTING CRAPOLA again?
That's nothing new.
But here is something that is:
"Scientists witness eruption of deep-sea volcano using robot; Lava explodes 4,000 feet under Pacific surface" by Jason Dearen, Associated Press | December 18, 2009
"The cultists have been screaming that the warmer temperatures in west Antarctica were proof of human-caused global warming. Nope. There's a volcano down there." --Wake the flock up
And now they are finding them in the Pacific?
SAN FRANCISCO - Scientists have witnessed the eruption of a deep-sea volcano for the first time ever, capturing on video the fiery bubbles of molten lava as they exploded 4,000 feet beneath the surface of the Pacific Ocean in what researchers are calling a major geological discovery....
Of course, that wouldn't heat up the water or anything, right?
Eighty percent of the earth’s volcanic activity occurs in the sea, but their underwater locations have complicated scientific efforts to this point....
Which would be "warming" we KNEW NOTHING ABOUT, huh?

Yeah, I'm sure MAN is responsible for THAT, too!!!
