Yes, its clear that you don't understand what the climate scientists have been predicting. They are NOT predicting a strictly monotonic increase in sea levels over small time frames. They ARE predicting a long term trend.
Were they allowed to release the study in general or did the Koch brothers give them express permission to do so?
It seems like they'd have ordered a suppression for something so counter to their interests.
Apparently the paper has not been published yet. So we'll have to see.

Prof Phil Jones, the CRU scientist who came in for the most personal criticism during "Climategate", was cautious about interpreting the Berkeley results because they have not been published in a peer-reviewed journal.
"I look forward to reading the finalised paper once it has been reviewed and published," he said.
Following your metaphor,
The first priority is for the pilot to safely land the plan.
Meanwhile, you'd probably want every single plane of the same model to be inspected before flying.
If there is 20 years of solid evidence that your fuel is making the engine explode, you'd be pretty stupid to keep using that fuel.
Depends. If they can correlate your health records with your credit history, they would search for wealthier people, who would get this letter:
Dear Sir/Madam, we understand that you are at risk for (something terrible requiring expensive treatment). We'd like to offer you our Premium insurance program.
OR, if you were an academic at another institution, and you wanted to discuss something with another professor, and that other professor is sometimes outspoken, then you might think twice about what you say?
OR if you're a student of said professor, and you wanted to discuss your career in the field, would you think twice about that if that correspondance could be public?
By your logic, if I am in line at Dunkin Donuts and the person in front of me (Joe) is on the phone leaving a message while I'm talking to my friend then Joe is guilty of illegal wiretapping.
Only if they are recording the police. And since you're at a Donut shop, that is likely the case.
Could you give me Joe's full name and current address? I need to report him.
what the fuck are they thinking by claiming that Glenn [Greenwald] weighs “professional preservation” against “cause”? Could they be more wrong, painting Glenn as a squeamish careerist whose loud support for WikiLeaks (which dates back far longer than these security firms seem to understand) is secondary to “professional preservation”?

or Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia.....
It sounds like he was embarrassed at the shitty review process, for which he is responsible.
1. Resign from prestigious journal
2. ???
3. Profit!

As a level-headed, independent skeptic I ask simply: TEACH THE CONTROVERSY!

Stable economy == smaller (and happier ) families.
That's why environmentalists should be supporting stable economies.
Other species don't need self-limitation, because they haven't learned how to out-compete all other species.

I am gay, I consider Exodus International's activities deceptively cruel to the point of fraud, and I find the app itself offensive.
And I hope that Apple allows the app to remain in the App Store.
Yeah, right next to the 'horoscope' and 'enlarge your penis' apps.
Is he the one from Springfield? or the guy from Portland?

If you've read anything that blogger Greenwald has written, you'd know how true this.
Now I can teach my course, 'All Christians are stoopid'. without losing my job.
He got his degree at Vogon U.!
Mr. Lacy should have his license suspended for being a moron.
No, his engineering license is protected by his moron license.
