I promise to get back to substantive blogging shortly, but in the meantime, if you've got three minutes to tear yourself away from coverage of Sarah Palin's book:
Scientifically sound? Not the words I would use, but not too far off the mark, either. Hyperbolic? Yes. Offensive? To some. Provocative? Absolutely. Greenpeace and the Agit-Pop gang know how to grab your attention. If, that is, you already care about preserving what's left of the planet's ability to host civilization as we know it.

The conspiracy behind the Anthropogenic Global Warming myth (aka AGW; aka ManBearPig) has been suddenly, brutally and quite deliciously exposed after a hacker broke into the computers at the University of East Angliaâs Climate Research Unit (aka Hadley CRU) and released 61 megabites of confidential files onto the internet. (Hat tip: Watts Up With That)
When you read some of those files â including 1079 emails and 72 documents â you realise just why the boffins at Hadley CRU might have preferred to keep them confidential. As Andrew Bolt puts it, this scandal could well be âthe greatest in modern scienceâ. These alleged emails â supposedly exchanged by some of the most prominent scientists pushing AGW theory â 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.
One of the alleged emails has a gentle gloat over the death in 2004 of John L Daly (one of the first climate change sceptics, founder of the Still Waiting For Greenhouse site), commenting:
âIn an odd way this is cheering news.â

Greenpeace appears to have edited themselves - there are images that could be shown (say, of the tailing ponds) that make you wonder if you are in some industrial remake of Dante's Inferno. Unfortunately, cash is king in the north, and our penchant for destruction is running wild.
James - you gonna spin this? Or just delete and ignore?

These are YOUR "climate experts".
What a joke.
This video is rather one sided and does not accurately represent the benefits that tar sands will bring Canada and the world.
I wish they had a clean version so I could post it for kids...

You can't spin what is already spinning ... Andrew Blot can't lie straight in bed. He is Australia's print version of Glenn Beck
Can there be more than one side to this coin too?
