in their own words, yes.
its admitted people. case closed. biggest fraud in history. read their emails.
From Phil Jones (modification of data to hide unwanted results):
I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) amd from 1961 for
Keith’s to hide the decline.
What exactly are you trying to hide, Phil?
From Kevin Trenberth (failure of computer models):
The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can’t. The CERES data published in the August
BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate.
Your models wont account for global cooling? Travesty.
From Michael Mann (truth doesn't matter):
Perhaps we'll do a simple update to the Yamal post, e.g. linking Keith/s new page--Gavin t? As to the issues of robustness, particularly w.r.t.
inclusion of the Yamal series, we actually emphasized that (including the Osborn and Briffa '06 sensitivity test) in our original post! As we all
know, this isn't about truth at all, its about plausibly deniable accusations.
Deny Ignorance?
From Phil Jones (witholding of data):
The skeptics seem to be building up a head of steam here! ... The IPCC comes in for a lot of stick. Leave it to you to delete as appropriate! Cheers
Phil
PS I’m getting hassled by a couple of people to release the CRU station temperature data. Don’t any of you three tell anybody that the UK has a
Freedom of Information Act !
Information is not free!
From Phil Jones (destroying of emails / evidence):
Mike, Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4? Keith will do likewise. He’s not in at the moment – minor family crisis. Can
you also email Gene and get him to do the same? I don’t have his new email address. We will be getting Caspar to do likewise
Why not delete the email that suggested deletion?!
not so smart after all...
From Ben Santer * (witholding data) :
We should be able to conduct our scientific research without constant fear of an "audit" by Steven McIntyre; without having to weigh every word we
write in every email we send to our scientific colleagues. In my opinion, Steven McIntyre is the self-appointed Joe McCarthy of climate science. I
am unwilling to submit to this McCarthy-style investigation of my scientific research. As you know, I have refused to send McIntyre the "derived"
model data he requests, since all of the primary model data necessary to replicate our results are freely available to him. I will continue to refuse
such data requests in the future. Nor will I provide McIntyre with computer programs, email correspondence, etc. I feel very strongly about these
issues. We should not be coerced by the scientific equivalent of a playground bully. I will be consulting LLNL's Legal Affairs Office in order to
determine how the DOE and LLNL should respond to any FOI requests that we receive from McIntyre.
umm....
need we go on?
