Top Mann Nemesis: He's Not a Fraud
As Miller and Heartland president Joe Bast noted, it was an extremely odd audience reaction: McIntyre received a standing ovation upon his introduction, thanks to his dogged research and unrelenting demand for information and accountability, but then his blase' attitude about scientists' behavior -- particularly Mann's -- left most of the audience cold and some even angry. The applause for McIntyre was tepid upon the conclusion of his remarks. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

'Mann's defenders embrace the dissent of McIntyre, the Hockey Team's original tormentor. This is particularly odd given that this statistics expert wasn't sufficiently a 'scientist' for their standards when it came to catching their hijinks with statistics. But, now, Steve's enough of a lawyer for them in this pinch'
