Leonard Ornstein Says: 1) The most important is: does the behavior of the scientists involved significantly weaken the collective AGW position that warming is real, that it will probably continue with business as usual, and that such warming will probably subject humanity (and ecosystems) to severe risks? The answer to this one should be a resounding, NO.

TomD Says: This sounds like more “the science is in” and “there is a consensus”. But in fact the answer is YES! To be a little redundant here, “if the answer to this one is a resounding, NO”, why is it necessary to fudge data, withhold information and manipulate the peer review process.

The most important thing that the AGW society needs to prove is that global warming is bad for humans, animals and plants. That’s going to be a tough one, cuz it just ain’t the case.

Next the AGW crew must prove that there is global warming that is above and beyond normal cyclical variations for an interglacial period.

Next the AGWers have to prove that humans are the cause of the global warming.

When the AGWers can show that the current climate conditions are an anomaly to past interglacial periods, it will give them some credibility. Until then….Ho Hum.

Here is a question that should be asked to those who believe in AGW.

If the CRU/NASA/NIWA scientists were Medical Doctors, and they were doing diagnostic tests on you and using the same methods used to process the climate data, would you trust the diagnosis? would you let them treat you base on their diagnosis?
