So they're not criminals, they're just idiots.

"The panel found no evidence of research misconduct in three of the four areas it examined, including falsifying data and misusing confidential information. But it concluded that further investigation was needed into whether Mann did anything not in keeping with accepted practices for proposing, conducting or reporting research." I know it would be wishful thinking to think that the ignorant folks who up until now used this one incident to paint all scientists as dishonest, and thus free them from acknowledging anything they don't like as valid, would realize that at worst this was a matter of incorrect protocol being followed, and at best a simple matter of human error by an individual. However, as these people are the same ones who continue to knowingly assert untruths such as "Al Gore claimed to have invented the internet", I strongly doubt that they will display any more honesty when it comes to this matter. But at least those of you with some shred of dignity will be able to more easily spot these liars when they continue to repeat lies about climate scientists "cooking the books". http://www.centredaily.com/2011/08/23/2886753/bloomberg-news-penn-state-climate.html ( -or- http://j.mp/nFc0D8 ) -- Ed Leafe _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
