Climategate Did Not Begin With Climate (Remembering Julian Simon and the storied intolerance of neo-Malthusians) — MasterResource
[Holdren] What exactly entitles you to the evidently self-applied label of ‘energy expert’? …. You are of course entitled to (verbally) attack me in any legal way you like, but please don’t then pretend in personal notes to me that we are colleagues, each doing our best to get at the truth…. [Y]ou appear to be … lacking both discernible qualifications in the real world and the ability to tell a good argument from a bad one. I want nothing further to do with you.
A strange intellectual dude.
American Thinker: Climategate's bullyboy scientists
When a man like Steve McIntyre can come in from another field and rock the foundations of hockey-stickology with his critique, then he is telling the Manns and the Joneses that they don't have a "science." All they have is a religion.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
American Thinker: Climate Treaty Reparations would cost $50-$200bn per year
President Obama will pull out all of the stops to get the treaty negotiated in Copenhagen next week and ratified in 2010 by the U.S. Senate. He knows that time is against him. Given time, more and more Americans will discover the new scientific realities. Moreover, his huge Democratic Party majority in the Senate will likely disappear in November 2010, and he may never again get another chance to get the two-thirds vote needed to ratify it.
American Thinker: Watermelon Marxists
Global warming as a science is defunct. Evidence of scientific dishonesty abounds, and the recent e-mail revelations may be the nail in the coffin. When all is said and done, temperatures are falling.

But as a tool for watermelon Marxists -- green on the outside and red on the inside -- climate change orthodoxy represents an opportunity to achieve age-old dreams of Communist wealth redistribution. Don't take my word for it. Listen to Cass Sunstein, Obama's new regulatory czar and perhaps the most powerful bureaucrat in America:
It is even possible that desirable redistribution is more likely to occur through climate change policy than otherwise, or to be accomplished more effectively through climate policy than through direct foreign aid.

The break ins occurred late last year, whereas the unsuccessful hacking attempts happened in the past few months.
By the way, my computer had a virus a few years back, and to this day, I've got no proof that Tom Yulsman wasn't behind it.

It was me Tom. And I promise I won't tell anyone about that one email between you and Phil Jones that I found on your computer. I swear!)
