Mass fraud, by not releasing a small amount of information directly to people who make a habit of screaming at them, when they generally release it elsewhere that the screaming idiots could have found it if they looked?

Please, detail this mass fraud, of which you take petty personal vendettas as absolute proof of.

Que post from some website that never bothered to actually read all the e-mails. The websites that did read it point out that these guys "talked about doing it and were pretty pissed at the people" but eventually the data was released. But oh darn, some scientists constantly bombarded with FOIA requests designed to make them not be able to do their work got mad about being attacked.

Ahuh, Which is why I'm so terrified that the day after tomorrow we'll all die horribly, and how I totally love Al Gore and want to have his kids, and how on top of that I never once questioned or investigated the scientific principles and data behind the claims. Or you could be a complete fucking idiot with no applicable knowledge, or ability to reason.

withholding data from people who are making it their goal to undermine and destroy your lifes work. Certainly a crime that deserves the most brutal of punishments......

So you're saying that "ignorance is bliss"? "Information is the currency of democracy." -- Thomas Jefferson It's the name of my show for a reason. There are regulations on the government to keep records and lists and files for whatever they do, no matter what. If any information is held, it as, at the very least, dishonest, and it should be researched and investigated. Because there's no telling what that information could be. I think you'd agree with this.

If they actually withheld it, I agree... But look at ragnaroknrol's post above: http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/3349742/Re-Climategate-scientists-above-the-law.aspx[^] If that's true, and they actually DID release it (While complaining privately - Or what was supposed to be privately until they were hacked) within the FOIA-mandated time limit, whatever that may be, then I see no issue.

I am sorry I missed this reply at the time, but take comfort in the fact that you said nothing intelligent or worth responding to, anyhow. Science is pure evil ? Do you burn books, too ?

The issue is entirely that CSS is reading people who are lying about what happened.

Climategate scientists above the law. No, they are not. They are merely beyond the law because of the six month limitation. Only Lizzie Windsor is above the law.

They will only be criminals when they have been found guilty of a crime. You must press the relevant authorities to prosecute. Do something! Posting here will not change anything.

The UEA data was not "a small amount of information". Data did make a brief, accidental, appearance on the Real Climate site, and was duly downloaded and used by the 'sceptics'. However, they had no way of knowing whether this data was kosher, and UEA were not forthcoming. And, although following the methodology published by Jones, et al, the sceptics could not reproduce their results. Hence the reasonable request for the actual data set used in the paper, together with the programs used to process that data. (My opinion is that version control was unknown to climatologists, and that the data set and programs had 'moved on' since publication. Hence the panic.) Characterising all those who wish to check the working as "screaming idiots" is unfair, there are serious scientists among them.

And if your data and processing are valid, how can they undermine and destroy your life's work? And if your life's work is based on a misconception? Is it not best undermined and destroyed? Anyway, my life's work has been destroyed over time. Dear dead systems, with such flair, too. What's become of all the code, Used to hang and cause disruption?

Has there been irrefutable evidence of the number of FOIA requests with which Mann claimed he was 'besieged'? Do you think we should submit another FOIA request to find out? :)

Only if the requests are irrelevant. Never hear scientists complaining about the time wasted by attending junkets scientific symposia around the world.

Government does indeed keep recorded data that is available on request. Of course, there are exceptions on what data can be released, the request has to pass certain tests. However, the University of East Anglia is not government but is a public body and is covered by the same FOIA. The public body you make requests to for FOIA data are responsible for processing the request. An individual working for the public body, irrespective of rank, will be the person who is required to furnish that data if that request falls within (the rules) that which is allowed to be released. If the individual refuses to act upon that request, the individual can be disciplined under his terms and conditions of employment but it is the public body who will be negligent in law and that makes it, primarily, a civil offence not a criminal offence. However, the English Freedom of Information Act is rather different from its Scottish equivalent which is again different from that which is relevant in the United States. Included in the English act are references to other important statutes such as the Data Protection Act and such as the Human Rights Act.
