Dr. Michael Mann co-authored the famous graph of temperature trends dubbed the “hockey stick graph.”
Today, Mann was implicated in the global warming email and document conspiracy.
hockey stick
Mann’s controversial work has been challenged in the past.

Dr. Mann was implicated in the global warming email conspiracy. It was reported on several websites today that classified emails and files prove that the junk scientists behind the global warming movement knowingly perpetrated a fraud on the global community. Mann’s name came up in several of the emails. The posted material, which includes e-mails allegedly sent by the CRU’s director Phil Jones to fellow climate researchers, including Michael Mann at Pennsylvania State University in University Park.

Dr. Mann was questioned later in the day and he spoke out about the documents and emails:

Professor Michael Mann, director of Pennsylvania State University’s Earth System Science Centre and a regular contributor to the popular climate science blog Real Climate, features in many of the email exchanges. He said: “I’m simply not going to comment on the content of illegally obtained emails. However, I will say this: both their theft and, I believe, any reproduction of the emails that were obtained on public websites, etc, constitutes serious criminal activity. I’m hoping that the perpetrators and their facilitators will be tracked down and prosecuted to the fullest extent the law allows.”

Things don’t look good for Dr. Mann.

    OK, Doctor I promise we will find the perp and hang him/her from the nearest yardarm after we tar and feather the SOB.

    Now, did you or did you not falsify the data as alleged in the purloined emails — for which as I said we are going to tar, feather and hang the perp. Yes, No?

    Doctor?

    Mann was also involved in a recent paper with PI Steig to reconstruct Antarctic temperatures, which effort was destroyed by Jeff Id, of Air Vent, breaker of today’s firestorm.

    As you may know the Palmer peninsula, sticking out into the SO is warming, the rest of Antarctica cooling.

    Well the paper’s thesis is the cooling is wrong, so they ‘reconstructed’ all those readings post fact.

    Lies, damned lies, and statistics.

    The depatrment chair for sciences has a real problem of reputation and accreditation with the falsifying of data by Dr. Mann at Pennsylvania State University.Moreover,”the serious criminal activity”, was soley done by the Gore Fanactic who drove science to reflect a dubious pedogogy.

    BTW… that graph is flawed twice over. The blue line ramps up at the end (current date era). It was created by cherry picking ONE tree out of over a hundred in the sample from one sample in many done in the area of Siberia. It was basically the only one that showed warming.

    G-d what arrogant bastards. I hope the weight of this house of cards falls fully on their heads.

    Mann responded in a way that sounded almost “lawyered up”. He may need some serious legal help before this is all over.

    His tone did nothing to make one believe that the emails are not, indeed, authentic.

    “both their theft and, I believe, any reproduction of the emails that were obtained on public websites, etc, constitutes serious criminal activity.”

    Does he not know that within days, there will be thousands if not tens of thousands of copies of those e-mails with even more downloaded onto people’s computers? The information is out, there is no way he or anyone else can hope to contain it.

    I can’t say that I am surprised to find the buggers buggering the data. I signed on several years ago with the sceptics after finding the data was truncated to show only the desired (or as it were, not desired) result. That plus the idea that a bunch of profs could actually develop a mathematical model of the climate with all of the natural inputs and outputs makes for science fiction not fact. Now look at the data sets comparing sun activity with temperature. Carbon dioxide is a follower (dependent variable) to sunspot activity. Further, incremental carbon dioxide, added to the levels found in the atmosphere today, have vitually no effect as a greenhouse gas. Politicizing science is a scandal and corrupting data intentionally to further a political ideology as has apparently been done in this case is criminal conspiricy.

    @Gandalf post 32

    I signed on to the skeptic ticket in 2006 while doing a College paper weighing the arguments of the IPCC and professor Lindzen. The ranges of estimates put forward by the ‘experts’ were too great to have any scientific meaning. Since then I’ve discovered ‘inconvenient facts’ that water vapor, clouds and mist are responsible for 95% of the greenhouse effect and that 450,000,000 years ago, in the midst of a massive ice age, CO2 levels were 15 times higher than they are now, nearly 6,200 ppm (‘conservative’ estimates place them at only 11.5 times as high or 4,400 ppm). Combined with research pointing to the sunspot cycle and solar output better fitting the temperature patterns, not only of the past century but throughout all recorded human history and indeed prehistory, it’s obvious that these people are hacks who use fear-mongering for money and power, just as the Nazis did with ‘international Jewish conspiracies of world domination.’

    I was browsing the now revealed archive and comments at the WUWT site and found this example of open discussion and helpfulness from the AGW group.

    ” 1. Think I’ve managed to persuade UEA to ignore all further FOIA requests if the people have anything to do with Climate Audit.
    2. Had an email from David Jones of BMRC, Melbourne. He said they are ignoring anybody who has dealings with CA, as there are
    threads on it about Australian sites.
    3. CA is in dispute with IPCC (Susan Solomon and Martin Manning) about the availability of the responses to reviewer’s at the various
    stages of the AR4 drafts. They are most interested here re Ch 6 on paleo.”

    The falsification of data and the conspiracy to commit same etc, constitutes serious criminal activity. Further, the granting of public funds for research warrants a federal investigation. I’m hoping the perpetrators, including possibly Professor Michael Mann, director of Pennsylvania State University’s Earth System Science Centre and a regular contributor to the popular climate science blog Real Climate, and their facilitators will be tracked down and prosecuted to the fullest extent the law allows.

    More on Al Gore’s climate fraud promotion book “Our Choice”

    [Maurice Strong, who is regularly credited as founding father of the modern environmental movement, serves on the board of directors of CCX. Strong was a leading initiate of the Earth Summit in the early 90s, where the theory of global warming caused by CO2 generated by human activity was most notably advanced.

    Both Strong and Gore come from the Club of Rome clique, who in their 1991 Report, “The First Global Revolution” openly admitted how they were planning to exploit the contrived hoax of global warming in order to further their agenda.

    “In searching for a new enemy to unite us, we came up with
    the idea that pollution, the threat of global warming, water shortages, famine and the like would fit the bill. All these dangers are caused by human intervention, and it is only through changed attitudes and behavior that they can be overcome. The real enemy then, is humanity itself.,”
    they wrote.]

    With Hurricanes At Thirty Year Low, Gore Turns To Photoshop

    [With the increasingly discredited notion of man-made global warming crashing and burning on a daily basis, climate alarmists are being forced to accelerate their fearmongering to unprecedented levels. With the evidence failing to match up to the doomsday proclamations, Al Gore has turned to photoshop in order to make a CO2-choked earth look scary enough to sell his cap and trade scam.

    The latest example of climate cult fakery comes in the form of the front cover of Al Gore’s new book, Our Choice; A Plan To Solve The Climate Crisis.]

    That the “hockey stick” is a proven fraud is nothing new.

    Micheal Mann has refused to publish his data and methods. That alone is evidence and reason enough to dismiss his “hockey stick” as crap.

    A scientist would always publish his data and methods, they are important for verifying his claims.

    Michael Mann is a liar. No wonder the Goreacle loves him.
