I am dissapointed that you actually believe that shit concerning the scientists. They reacted as human beings, and said and e-mailed some derogatory things concerning people who were saying, and continue to say, much worse about them. They were exonerated of 'twisting' the evidence, or destroying any evidence.
As for the information that the 'sceptics' were seeking, had they bothered to check the net, instead of making demands on busy scientists time, they would have found it freely and publically available.
No, the scientists are not cherry picking the data. In fact, that is almost solely the realm of the people whoring their credentials, such as Lindzen, and the rest of the sceptics.
In order to believe your accusations, Ian, one must believe that nearly all the scientists in all nations around the world have no ethics or morals. For there is as great a consensus concerning the warming among scientists as there is for evolution.
Very simply, we are seeing major changes in our envirnoment now due to the warming, changes that were not predicted to happen for another 50 to 100 years. And as we pick up new data, and see new patterns emerging, we need to know it. Even if it means, at times, stating that the data is very preliminary, but we have to start looking at it.
