The Commentator - The climate change racket: Finally a 'day in court'?

As NR and Steyn have already indicated to Mann’s lawyers, sue away, bring it on! After all, it is high-time the real science was brought fully under public scrutiny.

At time of writing the ball is firmly back in Mann’s court and we await his next move with considerable interest. For my money, don’t expect Mann to carry through on his threat. Once he realises just exactly who he is up against – and it’s not just NR and Steyn – and what is at stake for the whole climate change racket, for Penn State’s coffers, and for his reputation, expect weasel words to the effect that “on reflection, it’s not worth it”.

After all, he won’t want to risk killing the golden ‘public climate cash’ goose.
