government grant money and coming up with a finding showing Global Warming.

It's official. 2014 was the hottest year ever recorded!
Oops! Never mind. It turned out upon closer investigation that NASA scientists admitted that there was only a 38% chance that was true. Perhaps Vox should have peered just a few months into the future when it made that declaration to see their own article written by Julia Belluz and Steven Hoffman which stated that Science is often flawed. It's time we embraced that. Okay, great, but will Vox embrace it in the future when it comes to wild declarations about Global Warming or will they relapse to their normal routine? Vox starts out by giving us an example of flat out scientific fudging in the case of Dutch social scientist Diederik Stapel engaging in a practice that sounded very much like the hide the decline that went on among Global Warming scientists at the University of East Anglia a few years ago:

Climate Scientologists are always right. Because Science!
Ping.
I,too would be interested in such a study although I’m pretty sure what it will show if it is done truthfully. Only makes sense because such scientific notables as the Pope & Barack Obama are pushing the global warming theory.
Relying on such a short time period to define the norm, is like making your retirement investment determination based only on GM's price over the last 5 seconds.
Generally even in the behavioral sciences, which have a very lax standard, one doesn’t make assertions unless there is (on the basis of the statistical tests one is using) a 95% chance they are true. Usually the hard sciences demand even tougher standards.
RE: “As a result, GISS’s director Gavin Schmidt has now admitted Nasa thinks the likelihood that 2014 was the warmest year since 1880 is just 38 per cent. However, when asked by this newspaper whether he regretted that the news release did not mention this, he did not respond. - See more at”
I am in a big argument about this - is there a transcript somewhere that I can use.
Does that 40 years account for the years of fudged data admitted to in those exposed e-mails?
