Nice work
Thanks for this and that. And don't worry about vandalism accusations. I myself was thought to be vandal when I first started editing online encyclopedias, back in 2001. It took me a few months to prove myself. --Ed Poor Talk 15:25, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- The vandalism was certainly a mistake, lesson learned. I tried my best to make up for the mistake a few days later; offering more accurate edits by providing additional information on the following czars: Alan Bersin, Ron Bloom, Gil Kerlikowske, Paul Volcker, Carol Browner, Jeffrey Zients, Cameron Davis, Nancy DeParle, John Brennan, Dennis Blair, Kenneth Feinberg, Vivek Kundra, Adolfo Carrion, Jr., Gary Samore. If anything, the notice of vandalism was a good thing because it verified how, despite Conservative values as a model for truth in Conservapedia, there are boundaries that must be upheld to remain encyclopedic. At first I felt like perhaps Obama was right and maybe I am an "extremist," after having been blocked on Conservapedia for being too Conservative. But then I realized it wasn't about that, but more about keeping to the facts and not spreading unverifiable gossip. Ever since then I've made it a passionate goal to remain as factual and relevant to any topic that I edit. I appreciate your kind words, too. It's always nice to receive recognition for the good work as well as constructive criticism for the edits that need additional improvements. So thank you! DerekE 15:52, 14 December 2009 (EST)
Interesting, for your use

- Thanks! It makes sense. Perhaps another section should be created to provide an overall outcome as a result of Climategate, such as the necessary requirement that "Global warming, to be accepted as a scientific hypothesis, it must include details of how to prove it wrong--'falsifiability.'" I really hope the climate science community has learned from this (unfortunately politics and science are still holding hands, which is another clear need to change), so the article makes a great point. I'll look into this more when I return. Until then - Marry Christmas! DerekE 17:40, 23 December 2009 (EST)
Amazongate
A climategate and then a glaciergate and now an Amazongate. http://www.australianclimatemadness.com/?p=2956
And Alabama State Climatologist Dr. John Christy of the University of Alabama in Huntsville, has split ranks with other members of the discredited “hockey team” of climatologists exposed for fraudulently hiding and destroying data in the Climategate scandal that broke on November 19, 2009.
“I was at the table with three Europeans, and we were having lunch. And they were talking about their role as lead authors. And they were talking about how they were trying to make the report so dramatic that the United States would just have to sign that Kyoto Protocol,” Christy told CNN on May 2, 2007. See http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2438131/posts Some of those guys provide some pertinent graphics.
I can try to add some of this to the page later. Daniel1212 22:38, 27 January 2010 (EST)
