breaking story - “lost” climate data hacked, Global Warming is a Scam?

CBullit tips us off to breaking Global Warming News!!

“It appears that the proverbial Climate Science Cat is out of the bag….” … and into the box.

It throws down the bullshit flag on AGW so hard the Earth shakes

Remember when England’s CRU scrubbed all its temp data in response to Steve McIntyre’s FOIA requests? I, like many, concluded they did so because the data supported Steve and not their Mann-Briffa, hockey stick Thermageddon scenarios requiring Waxman-Markey type “Solutions.” I likened the whole affair to the plot of a spy novel, with moles and secrets. It appears I failed to account for some of the characters. Apparently a hacker with a passion for scientific truth has entered the storyline.

Today, some of the “missing” data (a 61 meg file of data, code and emails) began appearing in the comments at skeptic sites like Jeff Id’s Air Vent. Anthony posted some of it while traveling.

So, what were they hiding?

His page here links to a page HERE which mentions how the

HADLEY CLIMATE RESEARCH UNIT has been hacked, and their data put up on a bulletin board in Russia:

Breaking News Story: Hadley CRU has apparently been hacked – hundreds of files released 19 11 2009

The details on this are still sketchy, we’ll probably never know what went on. But it appears that Hadley Climate Research Unit has been hacked and many many files have been released by the hacker or person unknown

An unknown person put postings on some climate skeptic websites that advertsied an FTP file on a Russian FTP server, here is the message that was placed on the Air Vent today:

We feel that climate science is, in the current situation, too important to
be kept under wraps.

We hereby release a random selection of correspondence, code, and documents

The file was large, about 61 megabytes, containing hundreds of files.

It contained data, code, and emails from Phil Jones at CRU to and from many people.

I’ve seen the file, it appears to be genuine and from CRU. Others who have seen it concur- it appears genuine. There are so many files it appears unlikely that it is a hoax. The effort would be too great.

That page links to this one, http://www.climateaudit.org/?p=7801#comments , and in the comments several of the hacked emails are reprinted. The server is overloading right now.

In case you missed it, the John LeCare-esque contest Steve McIntyre waged to get surface station data from Britain came to an end the other day when a “mole” inside the agency gave him the data the tight-assed, in-the-AGW-tank managers refused to give up after multiple requests. Two days ago they began purging their files. Everything is now off limits. Smells like typical AGW “science.”

Well, maybe they did scrub those files. And maybe they didn’t. But it looks like someone keep a copy, or snuck out a copy, or broke in recently and stole a copy. Either way ... so what?

Well, nothing much really. Except that the emails and documents found pretty much prove that the data was rigged from the very beginning. Global Warming aka Climate Change is a TOTAL HOAX:

Look, I’m whacking this post together in seconds, I haven’t had time to read through all this or digest it. But CBullit has been on top of this for a long time, it’s getting play over at Watt’s Up With That ... and this could be the real deal breaker at last. Steamboat got a copy of the hacked data?? And it contains the erronious algorithms, the so called Yamal code and the Mann code? Those were the algorithms other real scientists had to reverse engineer to be able to plot Hansen’s data, right? And even then it wouldn’t work, but Hansen wouldn’t release the source code? And now the code is out? Yikes!

Dudes, send me a copy!!

I may have this whole thing wrong - I’ll take a backseat to CB, Steamy, and it looks like our Nicole has been busy over there as well?? So comment away guys, help us understand wassup wit dis shiz!

Not that very many people ever read this far down, but this blog was the creation of Allan Kelly and his friend Vilmar. Vilmar moved on to his own blog some time ago, and Allan ran this place alone until his sudden and unexpected death partway through 2006. We all miss him. A lot. Even though he is gone this site will always still be more than a little bit his. We who are left to carry on the BMEWS tradition owe him a great debt of gratitude, and we hope to be able to pay that back by following his last advice to us all:

1. Keep a firm grasp of Right and Wrong
2. Stay involved with government on every level and don't let those bastards get away with a thing
3. Use every legal means to defend yourself in the event of real internal trouble, and, most importantly:
4. Keep talking to each other, whether here or elsewhere

It's been a long strange trip without you Skipper, but thanks for pointing us in the right direction and giving us a swift kick in the behind to get us going. Keep lookin' down on us, will ya? Thanks.
