Exxon's notion of scientific research --Mephisto

"In particular, the Exxon chairman, Lee
Raymond, has referred approvingly to a
1998 petition apparently signed by 17,000
scientists questioning the evidence for
global warming.

However, it later emerged
that the petition had been circulated by a
certain Oregon Institute for Science and
Medicine, an obscure body of eccentric
views whose headquarters turned out to
be a large tin shed.


The petition had been disguised as the
work of the National Academy of
Sciences and it had been "signed" by
such authorities as Ginger Spice and the
fictional doctors from the sit-com
M.A.S.H."
