By the by, as questioned above. Kindly avail yourself of the interesting and substantial piece in todays WSJ. Two points are made, first about our objective friends at NOAA who are "recalculating" their data on ocean temperatures to be "more inline" with other data about sea temperatures. Apparantly we won't have as many of those bothersome questions about why we have had a "pause" in the rise for the last several years if the recalculations suggest we didn't have a pause after all.....oops.
The second part of the piece talks about three major climate papers published primarily to chasten their global scientific brothers in presenting less than a unified global front on the subject..........perish all dissent.
Seems that we're now at the Vito Corleone approach..."when we want your opinion, we'll give it to you". Gotta love it.
