Climategate: McIntyre and the ‘Divergence Problem’

The "trick" used to "hide the decline," which alarmists have claimed was taken out of context, is actually worse when the context is included.

It’s been less than a month since the Climategate files were first disclosed, but they’ve already had a dramatic impact on the debate over climate change.

On the one hand is the dominant so-called consensus — that human emission of greenhouse gases has been the primary cause of an unprecedented warming of Earth’s climate. On the other hand, there has been an underground opposition trying to make itself heard. What the disclosure of the files did was demonstrate that these opposition voices had been suppressed unfairly and unscientifically.

As a result, the raw data that had been withheld is becoming available to outside researchers. This new openness is already having results.

Economen zijn het niet met Obama eens

200 economen zijn het niet eens met de manier waarop President Obama de Amerikaanse economie uit het slop wil trekken en hebben pagina-grote advertenties geplaatst in de New York Times, de Washington Post, en Roll Call. Ze zeggen dat hij precies het tegenovergestelde doet van wat werkelijk zou helpen. Onder de namen bevinden zich verscheidene Nobelprijswinnaars.

Terwijl Obama op 9 januari nog beweerde dat iedereen het eens was met zijn plannen om de economie snel weer aan de praat te krijgen, zeggen zij:

With all due respect Mr.President, that is not true.
