One Of The Ways To Tell Science Is Phony

SEE HERE The one scientific mantra that I stick with is "Show me the data." Phony science is immediately evident if the data won't stand up. Now we see some of the climate alarmists trying to silence their critics in the courts. The solution to that is the same and in the case of any other science. Show us the data. Real science proceeds that way. You do experiments and you collect data and you interpret the data in the light of scientific models that are based on first principles and if the data fits the models you say the models have been validated (I might add that is not the same as saying they are right since the next data may not fit). If the data is changed to make the model work that is cooking the data. If the data is cherry picked so that only data that makes the model work that's another kind of cooking the data. The climate alarmists have done a lot of data cooking from the looks of things. If they are on the up and up then they should welcome scientific review, but that's not the way it looks.
