You know, especially after the scientists involved complained publicly that their work was being misrepresented.
In June 1996, Dr. Frederick Seitz, past-president of the National Academy of Sciences and president emeritus of Rockefeller University, wrote with regard to the 1995 IPCC report: "I have never witnessed a more disturbing corruption of the peer-review process than the events that led to this IPCC report."I had foolishly imagined that somebody's ears would be burning.
He continued: "This report is not what it appears to be -- it is not the version approved by the contributing scientists listed on the title page."
Apparently though, much like abandoning newborn babies in the middle of a prairie winter... there is no such thing as shame anymore.
And no such thing as truth.
