  If you displease Mann he gives you a humiliating dressing down in front of senior members of the Team:

  Curt, I can’t believe the nonsense you are spouting, and I furthermore cannot imagine why you would be so presumptuous as to entrain me into an exchange with these charlatans. What ib earth are you thinking? …I find it terribly irresponsible for you to be sending messages like this…and you must further know how your statements are going to be used…simply blurting all of this nonsense out in an email to these sorts charlatans you’ve done some irreversible damage. shame on you for such irresponsible behavior!

When I read the Nov. 25 discussion thread, all I can think is that these people are only barely literate about the numerical and statistical techniques they are using to message the data they're arguing about.

It's kind of like a bunch of medical quacks arguing about why it's better to do eye surgery with a hot soldering iron than it is to use a cordless electric drill.

Honestly. The people they're letting do "science" these days. What a joke.
