Unfortunately, because the global warming movement has become a strong religion, most of proponents will dismiss these e-mails, make excuses for them, and/or say they were taken out of context.

Global warming quit being a science a long time ago and facts just get in the way of the movement.

As another Freeper said on a different thread--the emails are irrelevant (though they provide juicy gossip, which is all that interests the "news" media). What matters is the DATA and computer methodologies which were also released, and which the CRU folks have vehemently refused to release to other scientists, despite attempts to use the British equivalent of the Freedom of Information laws to force them to. The data will FINALLY enable a REAL peer review of the scientific evidence based on data that hasn't been "cherry-picked" to build up the AGW case.
