Liberty Reborn

The Warmongers are tripping all over themselves. They had been withholding information despite several freedom of information requests in Britain apparently believing themselves above the law. Nah … really they were just covering their asses because they did not want their questionable data run through the ringer and debunked. They thought by withholding the data and ignoring the legal requests would protect them. That was until someone, somewhere took maters into their own hands and said that if the laws would not be enforced and the Warmongers forced to give up their data, upon which the whole “consensus” of man made global warming rests, that they would do what the law allowed them to do and see the data even if it meant breaking into the system to obtain it.

Now the Warmongers, after a week of spinning the clear language of a series of emails in which they talked about black balling publications that dared to question their word and publish dissenting opinions as well as ways to skirt legal requests for their data, are promising to give up their data … eventually.

The U-turn by the university follows a week of controversy after the emergence of hundreds of leaked emails, “stolen” by hackers and published online, triggered claims that the academics had massaged statistics.

In a statement welcomed by climate change sceptics, the university said it would make all the data accessible as soon as possible, once its Climatic Research Unit (CRU) had negotiated its release from a range of non-publication agreements.

Ah yes, the might art of the weasel. “We’ll give you everything … as soon as we get approval from others that is …”

But will they be making “all” their data accessible? Well, not quite …

SCIENTISTS at the University of East Anglia (UEA) have admitted throwing away much of the raw temperature data on which their predictions of global warming are based.

It means that other academics are not able to check basic calculations said to show a long-term rise in temperature over the past 150 years.

…

In a statement on its website, the CRU said: “We do not hold the original raw data but only the value-added (quality controlled and homogenised) data.”

Oh … so they ARE NOT really going to release all their data. Just the massaged, or as they call it “value-added” data.

What legitimate scientists does not keep their data and allow others to look at it and find potential errors? Answer: the Warmongers.

So while they make promises the reality is the promises they are making they cannot keep. Typical.
