    Listen, they knew they were fucking lying. They destroyed the data, they made up a load up bullshit, and they attacked any scientist who disagreed with their findings. Capeesh? They need to be fucking whipped with jellyfish laced steel cables.

    Who? Siddall et al were not lying. Are you back to "Climategate" again? You never really understood what was going on there, did you?

    No, the raw data has always been available.

    Really? Such as?

    CaptainSeeSharp wrote:

    Not entirely true. They accepted criticism from those working in the same or similar fields, but they had difficulty accepting it from scientists and others who had no background in climate studies, and they were not always right in this. (Would you let me criticise your burger flipping technique? No. Would I welcome your suggestions on the design of information systems? No. So you see, scientists are only human.)

      So, what exactly did Siddall et al do to upset you? Oh, science. They modelled the sea-level changes versus global temperature changes over the past 22,000 years. And, hey, it worked! They then used the model to project sea-levels up to 2100, and published in July 2009. Hang on! Said Vermeer and Rahmstorf, surfacing from the publication of a similar paper (December 2009), we think you've overlooked a couple of points. So we have, Siddall et al replied, and withdrew their paper. That is how science works. It is, over time, self correcting.

          The FSM clearly stipulates that global warming is proportional to the decline in piracy. Besides, there is only ONE Flying Spaghetti Monster, and clearly you won't be going to the heaven with the beer, strippers, and midgit (sic). The great thing about following the FSM is that the Pastafarians know for a fact that their "religion" is a joke. (No, I'm not one of them, but I think it's hilarious)

            Let's get the easy bit over first, nobody lied. If I spot a bug in a piece of code, I am forced to correct it. Nobody is forcing me correct it, it is merely a figure of speech. Scientists have been forced to withdraw a study on projected sea level rise due to global warming after finding mistakes that undermined the findings. Similarly, nobody is forcing them to withdraw it, it is a figure of speech. Gee. If you hadn't been such a "rebel" at school, you might have learned something, like English.

                No? So if it gets warmer, tree rings get wider, up to a point aparently, where they start to react weakly. Which means as it gets warmer, the rings dont get so wide. I dont see any implication a decline here, in temperature or tree ring width. Yes, and that ONE tree is famous. There is apic on the internet of it with a plaque attatched. Its quite funny, pitty I cant find the link, but basically, this one tree is behind the hockey stick, and all GW hysteria since!

                        I don't claim to understand the calculations they're doing... But supposedly the formula starts to fail around the '50s or '60s... As in the nearby thermometers show higher temperatures, but the tree rings don't correspond anymore. I found a little more explanation on the topic... Yes, it's a blog post, but then, so is most of our "evidence" nowadays... At least he quotes from a textbook. http://scienceblogs.com/islandofdoubt/2009/11/hacked_emails_tree-ring_proxie.php[^]

                          Ha! You mentioned Hitler! You lose! :) Actually, Godwin's Law applies to mention of Nazis too. Anything that compares people or things to Hitler or the Nazis qualifies as a Godwin invocation, except for totalitarian regimes and dictators, which are obviously similar. So technically, "eco-nazis" does qualify.

                              As usual, you do so much to foster and encourage reasonable debate on these issues. It's not at all like you're a barely literate, clueless moron, who doesn't really care what the issue is, so long as he can abuse someone, as a way to feel better about himself and his pathetic, failed life.

                                Yes, quite agree. There must be hundreds of studies relating to climate change which are full of inacuracies and lies just waiting to be exposed.

                                As someone else said, that's how science works. It's not a question of exposure, but of self correction over time, by scientists as a whole.

                                  You know it's enough just to say that you disagree or are pleased at the outcome or results; you don't know to get all melodramatic and spiteful: it detracts from your point and makes you look a bit, well, ignorant.

                                        They committed outright fraud and perpetuated a fear-mongering lie using taxpayer dollars, and broke various other laws in the process. They destroyed science.

                                        And you claimed you were justified when you were off shoplifting. Maybe you should have had your hand cut off for it? :suss:

                                          No they didn't, they hadn't considered a couple of points that two other scientists pointed out to them.

                                          Who is frightened, exactly? Why would anybody be afraid of a rise of 1.5m over 100 years? Not exactly a tsunami. Where is the lie? They published a paper giving sea-level projections and how they were arrived at. Are hurricane forecasts fear-mongering lies; or do they merely enable people to prepare appropriately, even though, in the event, the hurricane does not strike them?
