Talking of a war on science. Originally posted at Tamino:
"M&M got at least one person affiliated with GOP to make a bogus request. Does the name Sarah Ferguson (and no I am not referring to the royal). She goes by SarahF at CA, do a search. How many more are/were there?
Also, this is definitely worth a read:

Rush Limbaugh calling for “every scientist at every university in this country that’s been involved in this be named and fired, drawn and quartered.” I had no idea until reading her post what he meant by that.
So he can incite people to torture and/or murder climate scientists someone with no consequences?! Come on, people have been sent to prison for less.
If we get through this without losing a climate scientist at the hands of a madman we’ll be very lucky, and going by Limbaugh’s call to violence I do not think that is an exaggeration.
I’m shocked and disgusted."
