Quadrant Online - Land of the Long White Hockey Stick?
Te Papa, the eyes of the climate science world are now upon you! May you examine and adjudicate on the Hockey Stick with scientific rigor, not forgetting to read Andrew Montford’s magisterial analysis, The Hockey Stick Illusion: Climategate and the Corruption of Science.

The staged media event on Capitol Hill was a modern-day equivalent of Nero fiddling while Rome burned.
