you’re welcome.
I decided to just cover the “climate gate2″ nonsense in the blog, and save the video for more important stuff. working on an update to the ‘it’s all the sun” crock.
Same for me, I’ll only cover this if I see something consistently return that isn’t true. Or I might make a recap video when the yippers have calmed down a bit.
So currently I’ll just focus on working on my next video release.
I’ve been told that IPCC is above national FOI [Freedom of Information] Acts. One way to cover yourself and all those working in AR5 would be to delete all emails at the end of the process. Any work we have done in the past is done on the back of the research grants we get – and has to be well hidden. I’ve discussed this with the main funder (U.S. Dept of Energy) in the past and they are happy about not releasing the original station data.
You and Potholer consistently do some of the best on-line journalism. Thanks.

Anyone have the context of the Jones quote:
