One wonders why the story of a new paper covered on WUWT: NCAR: Number of record highs beat record lows – if you believe the quality of data from the weather stations did not include the 1930’s and 1940’s and earlier, conspicuously missing from the NCAR graphic below: From: “The relative increase of record high maximum [...]

Many think that the British have completely bought into the idea of anthropogenic global warming. Certainly their government has, as Gordon Brown and the Labourites push for action at Copenhagen. The Times of London decided to poll on the question, and got a surprising result (via Newsbeat1): Less than half the ...

I’ll have a lot more on this study later, but for now just a short rebuttal.

There have been questions raised as part of this discussion about the nature of the weapons Nidal Hasan used in the Ft. Hood shooting. He apparently carried two pistols, and both are designed to be effective killing weapons. The more newly designed Five-sevN that he had purchased under the noses of the FBI who was busy investigating him is specifically designed to be very effective at killing large...

The American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity (ACCCE) — a front group of big utilities and coal companies — is no stranger to fraud. During the summer’s House debate on cap-and-trade legislation, lobbyists working on behalf of the coal group sent forged letters to members of Congress, and lied under oath about it. Now, [...]
