Why is that?
The "basics" is high-school science. It's the "scientific-method", "thermal
radiation", and "absorption spectra". I remember learning all three in
high-school.
The basics of the skeptics argument is about the scientific-method
specifically. Skeptics believe that computer models should not replace
empirical evidence, and that historic reconstructions should be reproducible.
The hacked e-mails don't show a hoax or a fraud to make up data, but they do
show a conspiracy to prevent their results from being reproduced by the public.
How can anybody in civilized society not be qualified to understand and have an
opinion on the reproducibility of results?
