First off, the university shouldn't be doing their own inquiry.  Secondly, the university--while pretending to refute the claim that Dr. Mann "manipulated and withheld data"--actually don't make their case.  They explain a misunderstood statement about using a statistical trick to match up disparate data sets without ever explaining how Dr. Mann erased the medieval warming period and little ice age in his now infamous hockey stick graph.  Disingenuous.  tsk tsk  And the call themselves scientists.


Climategate is about a lot more than misunderstood e-mails that were (almost certainly) leaked by someone on the inside.  No, it is about the perversion of the scientific process to achieve a preordained political agenda, by manipulating the peer review process, marginalizing dissenting scientists, filtering data, and even systematically altering articles on wikipedia. 


As a resident of Northern VA, I can tell a snow job when I see one.  I got a 39" of the stuff last week.  :eek:
