There is an email circulating to APS members asking the APS to reconsider its statement on climate change in light of the "Climategate" release of internal correspondence of members of IPCC. The lab is in a central position because of its long standing program to compare in an objective way the various models of climate. I wonder whether the lab is just reacting or seriously looking into whether any of its work might have been influenced by possible "filtering the data". See this link:

The position should be one of skepicism, not denial. A big hole just got ripped in the credibility of the research. Science demands that questionable or unverified data must be rejected. That does not make the conclusion wrong, just unproven.
I'll bet the lab does nothing though. Too much money is at stake.
well put 9:28
I really don't care how this turns out because it's almost out of my control.
Perhaps the 8000-year cycle of warming and cooling dominates, perhaps people's contributions dominate the current reheating trend.
Like many patriotic modern citizens, I keep eating See's candies so I can sequester the carbon dioxide that I otherwise would release.
Either way, humankind will cope.
