Climate theory e-mails missing
The Daily Collegian[Penn State] ^ | 12/1/09 | Laura Nichols

Posted on 12/01/2009 3:52:09 AM PST by Bulwinkle

While some scientists involved in the international scandal now known as "Climategate" have admitted some raw data supporting the man-made global warming theory is now missing, the Penn State professor em-broiled in the controversy said the data in question has nothing to do with any of his work.

But when reached Monday, Penn State meteorology professor Michael Mann was able to offer some explanation as to why the data is now unavailable....

The missing data concerns surface temperatures from around the globe collected by a group within the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit, Mann said. A lot of this work was done "decades ago" and wasn't stored on a computer, he said.

"What they're referring to is that some of the old adjustments are lost in files that disappeared into oblivion," Mann said.

Is that the same dog that ate his homework?

“Oblivion”...also known as a skiff behind the next set of flats over from his own.

(Skiff, being English slang for a dumpster)

Let every politican and bureaucrat in Washington, DC and in Harrisburg, PA know that voters will not put up with them giving our money to this con artist. FReepers, especially those in the Keystone State, call your representatives. Not one more dime in grants to Michael Mann! He is a fraud!

They should have said the hackers destroyed the data...

That would have been more operable than they “needed the space”...

When this story first broke, my first email was to BOTH The Daily Collegian and the Pres. of Penn State.

My younger son goes to Penn State Erie

The software code comments admit throwing away data that doesn’t agree.

A farmer was working in his field when a young boy came running. PAPA, sister is in the hay loft with the hired man. She has her skirt up and he has his pants down.

THEY ARE GOING TO PEE IN THE HAY.

Son, your observations may be somewhat accurate, but your conclusions are not. These ‘scientists’ are the ‘son’ we are ‘sister’ and Al Gore is the hired man.

Since glowbull warming will lead us all to oblivion, Mann is saying its glowbull warming to blame for the missing data.

I think the word you are reaching for is "skip", not "skiff", which remains, in England as well as elsewhere, a small flat bottomed boat.
