Last week CNN breathlessly reported, “More record warmth as scientists warn

It’s been two months now since Climategate broke. The disclosure of thousands of emails, computer programs, and other documents from the Climatic Research Unit of the University of East Anglia in the UK revealed scandalous scientific misconduct of monumental proportions–enough that it has crippled the credibility of an entire field of science (paleoclimatology) and seriously tarnished
