Stolen e-mail messages among some of the leading climatologists are deeply disturbing. Rather than reflect a desire to discover truth, they reflect a desire to use scholarship and journal articles to convince the public of the scientists’ predetermined points-of-view.

Some selected passages with highlights are available here.
For more on the controversy, including links to the searchable data base containing the emails and computer code, visit Watts Up With That, Climate Depot, The Bishop Hill blog, and the Climate Audit Mirror Site.
The Competitive Enterprise Institute, one of the bête noirs of those promoting global warming, has announced its intention to sue NASA and its Goddard Institute for Space Studies for refusing to provide documents requested under the U.S. Freedom of Information Act
