lol, Brumar, lol.

Denial that Hansen and Mann have been secretive about their work shows you simply haven't been paying attention to the skeptics complaints over the past years.

Re the hockey stick chart, it has been debunked and that's significant because it was once used as the leading evidence of AGW.

There is no one piece of evidence for AGW, and never has been. There is an accumulation of observations, evidence from the past from a wide variety of sources, and theory. That is why people talk about "the weight of the evidence." If skeptics were really interested in posing alternative understandings, they would be developing their own comprehensive theories instead repeating the same old tired arguments over and over and over.

I will not get into yet another fruitless discussion of the alleged "debunking" of the hockey stick. It was based on a complete misunderstanding of what Mann was doing.

I can't believe that I am answering you again.
