It makes all their data completely worthless.

Well then, I guess we will just have to rely on what has been called in other articles the "value-adjusted" processed data for our multi-trillion dollar decision to save the planet. /s

Well there you have it.

There is now no discernible difference between the tactics of the CRU and the tactics of ACORN.

We’ve GOT to keep this story alive.

Two questions I have are:

1. If they were collecting data from around the world and you assume that they didn't own the collectors, did'nt they destroy other peoples property?

2. Can't the data be reproduced in some fashion for such an important issue?

In the 60's one of the demonstrators' slogans was something like

NO JUSTICE! - NO PEACE!

So we could now adapt this as

NO DATA! - NO WARMING!

The Earth receives 99.999999999999% of its heat from our Sun! The rest comes from the stars in the heavens but they have very little impact!

I'm happy to report that NASA has reported that Mars' atmospheric warming results from solar not human activity. So Marvin is off the hook.

I propose a special Gore tax at 100% of his wealth derived from his Inconclusive Truths. We then use these funds to launch him to Mars where he can dicuss this issue with Marvin!

This is a load of crap. Convert the adjusted data back to its raw form using the inverse of the equations that adjusted it in the first place.

Lets see, the data was disposed of when they moved into a new building? The company I work for pays a RECORDS STORAGE SERVICE to keep all our old stuff in a warehouse.

The dog at their homework?

How about criminal acts!

...the University of East Anglia has been forced to admit they threw away the raw temperature data they used to make their predictions of anthropogenic global warming. They claim they only kept the 'adjusted' data.

If the data was digital, ie: in spreadsheet or csv files, then they should have notes and copies of e-mails from whence the source data came.

Release all of the e-mail, source data files and climate modelling routines held locked up at the CRU.

If there was no finaggling of the data, ie: the results are what they are, then there should be no repercussions.

If, on the other hand, there is no "data-dump" then there can be no reproducable results to confirm theirs.

The choice is simple. How's that for a catch 22?

..... the CRU said: “We do not hold the original raw data but only the value-added .... ..... Climate change sceptics have long been keen to examine exactly how its data were compiled. That is now impossible.

Perhaps the ‘hacker’ who got the emails has the technical skill to extract the ‘deleted’ raw data as well. I have been told that nothing is ever REALLY deleted if it is sought by a really experienced technician.

As I recall, a witness in a Congressional hearing some years ago had written and deleted an anti-Clinton email to a friend that was recovered, much to her embarrassment.
