THE HOCKEY SCHTICK: Gavin still doesn't understand science
Gavin Schmidt of NASA/GISS quoted in the new issue of Nature Climate Change (4/11) states, "Of all the things that I can do that are important, is allowing reproducibility of my code on somebody else's computer important? No, that's not important."
Gavin has apparently learned nothing about reproducibility and the scientific method from McIntyre, McKitrick, and climategate.
Senate Dems reject attacks on EPA climate efforts - WIS News 10 - Columbia, South Carolina |
WASHINGTON (AP) - Senate Democrats have defeated a Republican effort to ban the Environmental Protection Agency from controlling the gases blamed for global warming.

In a 50-50 vote, the Senate rejected a measure by Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Sen. James Inhofe of Oklahoma. It would have repealed a 2009 finding by federal scientists that climate change caused by greenhouse gases endangers human health and prevented the agency from using existing law to regulate them. The amendment - to a small business bill - needed 60 votes to pass.
