SEE HERE That's what it comes down to.  The FakeGate controversy is essentially proof positive that global warming alarmism is intellectually bankrupt and dishonest to boot.  If you have evidence that something is true what you do is show the evidence.   Only when you really don't have a convincing case do you result to attacking your opponents with lies and misrepresentations.  This is not the way science works and it shows that the global warming crowd, whatever their pretensions, are not honest scientists.
