WharfRat...your blatant hypocrisy just never ends. Lets see you apply the same standards for Hertzberg to Jim Hansen. Hertzberg cannot be considered an unbiased scientist on the issue of climate change, as he is a paid consultant for an industry whose coal-burning power plants produce the single largest source of CO2 pollution in the U.S. This, to me, is proof positive that we ought to disregard Hertzberg's climate science all together. --------------------------------------------- Dr. JIM HANSEN, Chief of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, N.Y., and one of this year's recipients of a $250,000 Heinz Award The Heinz Awards Shared Ideals Realized I want to thank, Teresa Heinz and the Foundation for this Award, which I hope will encourage other scientists to speak their minds heinzawards.net ----------------------------------------- This is unheard of: A prominent scientist in the pay of the federal government attacks the President in a crucial state (Iowa) one week before the election. Not just any prominent scientist, either, but James HANSEN, recipient of $250,000 in pocket change from the Heinz Foundation, run by Mrs. John Kerry. Don’t worry, though, he said he was speaking as a private citizen because he paid his own way. With Mrs. Kerry’s money, we might add, in his family nest egg.
