The American Spectator : AmSpecBlog : Hey NASA, Let the Sunshine

In short: how can you even try to pull the claim that releasing Hansen's applications for waiver for outside employment -- the ol' GSFC 17-60 -- would constitute a 'clearly unwarranted violation of his personal privacy', when you just released the same file for his co-worker Gavin Schmidt?

"I mean, do you accept that smoking causes lung cancer and it's bad for people to smoke? I accept that and it's scientists who told us that.

"The most important thing is to understand that there is strong science by many thousands of scientists over the last 100 years that has established that the climate is changing."
