With embarassment I read the e-mail that announced the presence of Michael Mann at TAM 2013. Regardless of your position in the scientific debate about climate change, Mann's behaviour with regard to the infamous "hockey stick" has not met skeptic standards. To understand why what he did was...

This time trying to criminalise science by prosecuting people on the basis of the words they choose. It really beggars belief. http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2010/10/cuccinelli-goes-fishing-again/

Judge quashes Cuccinelli subpoena of U-Va. records This is chilling. There's an attorney general out there going after a scientist because he doesn't like his scientific conclusions.

This letter was written by a co-worker of mine, who gave me permission (in fact he explicitly encouraged me) to distribute and forward it at will. I thought it might be interesting to the JREF so I'm posting it here. If possible I'd like it to be featured on SWIFT but I'm not sure who I should...

This time by the University itself in consultation with the Royal Society. http://www.uea.ac.uk/mac/comm/media/press/CRUstatements/Report+of+the+Science+Assessment+Panel The British parliament exonerated them a couple weeks ago, and Mann was cleared a while before that...

Mann was largely cleared of any wrongdoing some time back http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=166526 It now seems that Jones and the CRU have similarly been cleared in a UK parliamentary investigation into Climatefizzle...

A happy New Year to all 27 of Michael Mann's colleagues, who have received this fine letter. In the US, whistleblowers can receive large sums of money whether or not a prosecution occurs. Of course this post having to do with scientific fraud needs to be in .... hmmm.... well the Science...

I'll be posting news articles in here as I see them. Please confine discussion to said articles or post some of your own. Not interested in blog postings, or anything more than one week old for purposes of this thread. Do not flame ware this thread. If a troll :troll posts, ignore the troll...

Mann Hockey Stick: Latest news The House of Representatives' Committee on Energy and Commerce has written to Drs Mann, Bradley and Hughes demanding that they disclose all materials including computer source code, that was used to produce MBH98 (the "Hockey Stick") that was featured prominently...

I happened across a thread in another forum and discovered that the recent paper by McIntyre and McKitrick have perculated up to some interestingly high and influential places. Namely, The Committee on Energy and Commerce. Several letters officially requesting answers from Mann, et al, can be...

For those interested in the Mann "Hockey Stick" saga, here's the latest news from Steve McIntyre

For those who want to know about the significance of McIntyre and McKitrick's work in debunking the "Mann Hockey Stick" here's a simple guide: http://www.uoguelph.ca/~rmckitri/research/Climate_L.pdf It's written by Marcel Crok, editor of Natuurwenschap & Tekniek (which translates as Natural...

Right on cue on the 27th January, this was released: Canadian Research Showing Flaws in Major Climate Study Profiled in European Science Magazine Two Canadian researchers, Stephen McIntyre of Toronto and University of Guelph Economics Professor Ross McKitrick, are profiled in the cover story...

I am surprised I have seen no thread on the latest instalment of the Hockey Stick saga. McIntyre & McKitrick published an update on September 13, detailing their commincations with Nature, which gives some fascinating background into events which led to the Corrigendum written by Mann and...

McIntrye's site Seems Nature's peer review wasn't up to snuff on Mann's hockeystick paper. It also seems that those that pooh-poohed the McIntyre & McKitrick assessment that I mentioned in this thread because it was published in Energy & Environment instead of Nature, might wish to...
