Nothing Like Free Advertising

cooperbook.jpg Here's hard proof of the RWOS brandishing that I spoke of earlier. I assure you, I had nothing to do with this, but then, I don't exactly object, either.

Apparently Rep. Cooper also had some pretty revealing comments in his opening statement to the Waxman hearing. ThinkProgress has more.

UPDATE: Apparently the whole hearing will re-air tonight on CSPAN:

CSPAN tonight. 08:03 PM EST. 3:38 (est.)
House Committee
Political Influence on Climate Change Research
Oversight and Government Reform
Henry Waxman , D-CA

P.S.: It appears that Rep. Cooper also somehow got his hands on an early copy of my next book:

Wow, you know you've made it when Representative Cooper holds up your book. All you have to do now is a little Photoshopping and you have equally effective advertising with Storm World: http://www.anthroblogs.org/nomadicthoughts/archives/cooperbook1.jpg
