You have seen the worst of the climategate emails “I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick … to hide the decline†But there are over a thousand emails. What is the typical average email like? Download them. Are most of them just showing good honest scientists industriously at work doing real science? Here is a random sample. I selected the emails at random and entered them in this post before looking …
Winning on Climategate
The mainstream media is reluctant to report Climategate, except that evil hackers have stolen private emails in a vain attempt to create to cast doubt on a dire emergency that creates an urgent need for a massive transfer of power and wealth to a centralized one world government. Rasmussen polls, however, indicate that the vast majority of voters are aware of the general situation – not because they have been …
What is wrong with Wikipedia
Wikepedia’s rules innately and inherently create bias. One is required to source stuff, not in reality, not in what is observable, but in what respectable authority says, which necessarily excludes Climategate from Wikipedia. Evidence based data is “original researchâ€, thus the scientific approach is forbidden. To present the actual science, rather than the “consensusâ€, is a violation of Wikipedia rules Thus, for example, respectable authority does not like anything that …
The Cathedral loses
Honduras wins, Cathedral loses. It was a “coup†because it was not the kind of process that the Cathedral could manipulate without anyone understanding what was going on.
No twentieth century warming:
Climategate leak of Hadley-CRU-IPCC data shows no twentieth century global warming
Nullius in Verba
Checking the Royal Society website I find that the old translation, “take no one’s word for itâ€, which had mysteriously disappeared from the website, has mysteriously returned. But That it demands that evidence be presented by one side is rather less impressive if it continues to object to the other side also presenting evidence.
Climategate 2
The climategate letters, programs, and datafiles show a systematic and repetitious pattern of hiding and falsifying inconvenient data, cherry picking, self deception, and replacing peer review with theological review of the holy synod. It is worth examining particular incidents from this sorry story in detail. When considering one particular such incident, you should keep in mind that each such incident is not an isolated bad apple. Rather, the climate gate …
climategate 1
“Hide the decline†In this scandal, we see antiscientific attitudes of the IPCC, the big government branch of the big science conspiracy Hadley CRU, a coalition of big government and big science to take control of your life, with the intent of preventing you from making a living in an “unsustainable†way. And if the earth cannot support so many people “sustainablyâ€, that is your problem, not their problem. The …
Against Libertarian Imperialism
Faré on Distributed Republic criticizes the Rothbardians for supporting the enemies of their country. Many libertarians, after Rothbard, start from the correct assumption that one’s government is one’s first and most direct enemy, to the conclusion that one should always side with the enemies of one’s current oppressor. Rothbardians are wrong in supporting our enemies and the government is right to do something about them, the trouble is that the …
Nailing the coffin lid shut on warmist alarmism
Constantinople has summarized the debate for me in private email. People in authority are reading the blogs, and acting on them, but we are seeing the warming alarmists making the “just one sexed up graph†argument – similar to the argument that Uri Keller only bent some spoons with his hands, but all the other spoons he bent with is mind shows he really is magical, and Chomsky only made …
