ClimateGate: The genesis of a hack/leak | GORE LIED

It all started right here – The Air Vent blog on comment #10 [dated Nov 17, 2009]on a November 13, 2009 post titled, blandly enough, Open Letter on Climate Legislation:

Global warming research exposed after hack - Network World

The RealClimate Web site, a forum for climate change scientists, disputed skeptics' claims that the e-mails showed any attempt to manipulate results. "More interesting is what is not contained in the emails," the site noted. "There is no evidence of any worldwide conspiracy, no mention of George Soros nefariously funding climate research, no grand plan to ‘get rid of the MWP’ [Medieval Warm Period], no admission that global warming is a hoax, no evidence of the falsifying of data [are they seriously claiming that they've already verified this by looking carefully at all 61MB of leaked files?], and no ‘marching orders’ from our socialist/communist/vegetarian overlords."

Judging from the data posted, the hack was done either by an insider or by someone inside the climate community who was familiar with the debate, said Robert Graham, CEO with the consultancy Errata Security. Whenever this type of incident occurs, "80 percent of the time it's an insider," he said.
