Hacked Emails Show Climate Science Ridden with Rancor

[CaptainHaplo]

The reality is we have only been recording temps for about 150 years. Of course - the tempatures of the first 100+ years were using analog devices that not only had high margins of error - but also depended on the human eye to gauge the reading properly.

Take a modern mercury thermometer. Put it out on a counter - then read it. Now do you think its possible - given the extremely small "markers" on the thermometer - to misread it by so much as "half a degree"? Add that discrepinsy to the reality that some thermometers were of a higher accuracy standard than others (really want to trust a russian thermometer of 1870 to be EXACT!?!?) and then realize that the original records - as were requested years ago under FOI and similiar laws - were instead "lost" by those who have been caught with their hand in the cookie jar - using "tricks" to manipulate the data.

When a scientist - or a group of them - do all they can to hide or destroy original data, refuse to allow open peer review, and instead go so far as to omit data and stating a willingness to go so far as to threaten "even if we have to redefine what the peer review literature is." - it shows ta systematic attempt to keep the truth out. ***For the record - that is an excerpt of an email from Phil Jones - the former head of the CRU regarding papers he did not wish to include to the IPCC in his reports.

If it looks like a duck, floats like a duck, and quacks like a duck - its likely a duck.
