Temperature Data Wants To Be Free

An anonymous reader writes "The UK's Met Office Hadley Centre and University of East Anglia have been refusing access to the data used for their global climate averages and scientific studies. A copy of the data has leaked, and attempts continue to accomplish the release of the data by whoever maintains it. Excuses have included confidentiality agreements which cannot be verified because no records were kept, mention of the source has been removed from the Met Office web site, and IPCC records were destroyed."

See, I tried to warn everyone about Gore's new world order , but no one would listen.

It was all oil , bush , climate change and look how you all ended up.

He claims the quote over and over again on the site. But where's the primary source?

That's an interesting point. It sounds a lot like something McIntyre would love his adversary to have said, if he could only get him to say it.

I've seen a fair amount of McIntyre's work and I get a hinky feeling from some of it. Personally, I'd like to believe what he says because I enjoy using fossil fuels and would love to think that they are completely harmless and will last forever and always be sixty cents a gallon if we could only get Al Gore to STFU. It seems to be more complicated than that, though.

Jenny McCarthy has more credibility than a Nobel laureate

She's got advanced degrees in tits, which goes a long way where I come from.
