*So what obvious economic advantage would the scientists have to skew data in * > * favor of human-caused global warming? * government money...is not neutral. Any more than corporate money is neutral. Motive? How about simply government wants a power grab. Indoctrinate the gullible populace.... lie if you prefer the blunt word... You as a guv'ment scientist are told what you are to produce and you do it or loose funding (that would be the cushy job along with assorted perks and bene's). Your very livelihood depends on getting the answer correct(desired by those giving you the money) You are bought and paid for. At least in industrial, private sector research for business, and I've got my doubts with them, if they are researching, say plastic, which also comes from oil, whether it is petro oil or bio-oil, they have to produce the document and have reproducible results. For our beloved global warming scam artists, well, they just destroy the evidence that doesn't fit, refuse to release the raw data, even saying "I've spent X years gathering it, I am not going to release it to you so you can prove me wrong" yes its paraphrased, but the intent is correct. Pretty sad really > *Are the solar panel and wind-power corporations behind it all and using > their vast wealth to move us away from > petro-chemicals? Do the huge resources of the electric car industry provide > the money to pay off the scientists?* > Not sure what this is supposed to mean, but it sure isn't relevant. To date, none of these corporations, or any corporation outside of the complicit old media, are involved in this at all. I've no doubt they have used GW for marketing purposes (see below) but I doubt they have any number that the rest of us don't have and don't expect that they have helped buy the desired result. They have a product to sell, if it doesn't generate electricity, they don't sell product and they don't eat.. Global Warming may be kicking in in your tiny sampling of Moses Lake, but San Francisco is below average, as in no summer, as in two cold spells, including a day or two of frost in October. Other parts of the country report the same. The earth hasn't warmed since 1999. They even admit it in the released documents and lament that they don't understand why. now, for a bit of levity http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/17102 oh sorry, this one is funny http://newsbusters.org/blogs/noel-sheppard/2009/11/24/minnesotans-global-warming-mock-climategate *************************************************************************** PaddleWise Paddling Mailing List - Any opinions or suggestions expressed here are solely those of the writer(s).
