Just FYI: I'm reading all of the ClimateGate 2.0 emails

For a while, I was looking at the ClimateGate 2.0 emails by searching them for certain names and keywords.

Now, my plan is to read all 5,349 of them at this link.  I didn't want to start at #1, so I started at #5000, read to the end, then went back to 4,000.  I'm currently about 1,000 emails into this project.   If you don't want to read a lot of ClimateGate email excerpts, you might want to avoid this blog for a while.   I can't wait to see what's in the next 4,300 emails.

So far, it's been fascinating to get a look at the climate hoax from the inside.  The data fudging, the demonization of doubters, the knee-jerk rejection of alternate hypotheses, the quest for funding, the travel to exotic locations, the pal review, the left-wing politics, the fear of debate, the swagger in the early days, then the panic as the skeptics closed in--it's all there.

Another thing I've learned is that Michael Mann is evidently vastly smarter than me, because while it'll take me months to finish all of these emails, he finished up his stellar analysis back on Day 1.

Don't you worry, Tom; you keep on publishing, we'll keep on reading and laughing.

And the world will be forever indebted to you and your cohorts for exposing this corruption.

What irks me most is the exotic travels. Never in my wildest dreams could I imagine traveling to these kinds of places -- and on taxpayer dole to boot! All in the name of this "fantasy" called "global warming," aka "climate change."

Amazing job, Tom! Hats off to you. I read your blog very day but I usually don't follow your links because your summaries are so great.

Can't get enough, Tom. The climate realists are indebted to you as well as any person seeking the truth.
