This "Climategate/Warmergate" thing is just another case of FUD, an invented scandal.
- presidentender 17y agoIt's literally FUD (UD?), in that the skeptics are spreading uncertainty and doubt about the legitimacy of the models and the underlying data that the world leadership has accepted as gospel truth for the past decade. But it might be good FUD, because it might reopen intelligent discussion on a topic where debate has consisted of name-calling for just as long.
