The Globe and Mail is about as mainstream as you can get in Canada.

To those that said they were first "exaggerations and quotes out of context", the IPCC has started an inquiry, specifically with regard to the hockey stick results, and the practices of Mann and Jones distorting the peer review process. The University of East Anglia has also done the same, looking at whether Freedom of Information Act obligations have been broken. They also ordered the head of the CRU (Jones) to step down on Wednesday.

Climate scientists (pro-AGW) are saying this has set the science back 20 years. Monbiot has stated that all scientific work Mann and Jones has done is tarnished, and shouldn't be relied on.


This story has legs a mile long. Apparently the only people who think the statements in these emails were "taken out of context" are the sheeple who were at the end of the line when critical thinking skills were being handed out. The IPCC, the CRU, and even individual climate scientists know how bad this is.
