Summary:
Click here and here for the two most significant revelations to date.
Click here for some basic climate change science.
E-mails and other documents from servers at the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (aka CRU) – a (formerly?) world-renowned climate change research center – have been confirmed to have been hacked (or leaked) and published on the internet. The e-mails range from 3/6/1996 through 11/12/2009.
these e-mails suggest:
“Conspiracy, collusion in exaggerating warming data,
possibly illegal destruction of embarrassing information,
organised resistance to disclosure, manipulation of data,
private admissions of flaws in their public claims and much more.”
The Watergate analogy could be an exact mirror image -- one where, in this case, those who suffered the break-in are the ones taken down. Time will tell.
Could these hacked e-mails help explain why CRU has been unwilling to share their data?
This is unfolding just as global bureaucrats prepare to meet in Copenhagen to further impose their climate scare tyranny.
Expect the alarmists to do everything possible to attempt to portray this scandal as “much ado about nothing”. After all, in research money alone, there are tens of billions of dollars at stake. When we consider the mitigation angle, we are easily talking about tens of trillions of dollars corruptly funneled from politicians to their preferred recipients (and vice versa).

Luboš Motl at “The Reference Frame”:
Hacked: Hadley CRU FOI2009 Files
“The conclusion looks pretty clear. These people should be put in jail as soon as possible. You know, these are not just small tricks in an academic discussion. These people have acquired millions if not billions of taxpayers' money by methods that seem to be provably fraudulent.”

Quoting Luboš Motl at The Reference Frame:
“These people should be put in jail as soon as possible. You know, these are not just small tricks in an academic discussion. These people have acquired millions if not billions of taxpayers' money by methods that seem to be provably fraudulent.”
According to Professor Carter, governments around the world have provided about $50 BILLION in AGW research money. That is roughly equivalent to the amount Madoff scammed off of people who were defrauded through acts of their own free will.
If this turns into a fraud case, we’re looking at about $50 billion in fraud from people who were required through force of law to cough up their lost wages!
That last link (to Steely Dan’s song titled “Show Biz Kids”) includes a lyric that reminds me a LOT of some of the most prominent AGW celebrities. Of course, the most relevant lyric is the endlessly repeated refrain of “Lost Wages”. But, the lyric that REALLY reminds of me of the AGW celebrities is:
“Show business kids making movies of themselves, you know they don’t give a f__k about anybody else.”
The whole Al Gore Nobel deal with clownshoe sized carbon footprints jet setting to Copenhagen brings the song "Eminence Front" by the Who to mind.
The sun shines
And people forget
The spray flies as the speedboat glides
And people forget
Forget they're hiding
The girls smile
And people forget
The snow packs as the skier tracks
And people forget
Forget they're hiding.
Behind an eminence front
Eminence front - It's a put on.
nanodots: Eminence Front is apropos.
Eminence - “a position of great distinction or superiority”
Yep…
The whole cabal has been entirely rooted in the logical fallacy of an appeal to authority.
And, now that the curtain (the “front”) has been pulled back on the phony wizards of Oz, the scam should crumble.
But -- given the collusion of the utterly dishonest media -- it will take longer than it should. And, worst case, the utterly dishonest media will keep the scam alive.
