CLIMATEGATE "A computer hacker in England has done the world a service by making available a huge quantity of evidence for the way in which 'human-induced global warming' claims have been advanced over the years," David Warren writes in the Ottawa Citizen, a Canadian newspaper. "By releasing into the Internet about a thousand internal e-mails from the servers of the Climate Research Unit in the University of East Anglia - in some respects the international clearing house for climate change 'science' - he has (or they have) put observers in a position to see that claims of conspiracy and fraud were not unreasonable," Mr. Warren said. "More generally, we have been given the materials with which to obtain an insight into how all modern science works when vast amounts of public funding is at stake and when the vested interests associated with various 'progressive' causes require a particular scientific result. "There is little doubt that the e-mails were real. Even so warmist a true-believer as George Monbiot led his column in the Guardian [Tuesday] with: 'It's no use pretending this isn't a major blow. The e-mails extracted ... could scarcely be more damaging. I am now convinced that they are genuine, and I'm dismayed and deeply shaken by them.' ... "It is amusing to see mainstream media sources such as the New York Times, which thinks nothing of publishing purloined government documents that will endanger the lives of U.S. soldiers in the field and compromise vital intelligence operations, suddenly become all jowly and uptight about publishing the e-mails in question because they were 'illegally obtained.' "Other media - which have played a leading part for years in giving credibility to 'global warming' claims - are now maintaining the silence of Iago on the revelations. We will see how long this can be sustained."
