   That he hasn't heard yet that so called climategate turned out to   
   be yet another case of deniers getting it exactly backwards.   
      
   The academic review of climate data found no problem with the data   
   or with the "hockey stick".   
      
   That follows on the independent review by a team of AP journalists,   
   which found nothing to get overheated about in the entire archive of   
   stolen email.   
      
   "Freedom of Information" is a red herring that keeps getting raised   
   by deniers. One of the stolen emails discussed a case of a researcher   
   providing information demanded by a wealthy British Denier, who called   
   up one of his grad students and told him to expect to be arrested by   
   the FBI for fraud. Didn't happen of course, and the academic review   
   of that warming data also found no problem.   
      
   Global Warming is an observed fact which several researchers are   
   trying to explain.   
      
   Meanwhile at the snow challenged Vancouver Olympics another 20,000   
   tickets to the Cypress Bowl venue have been cancelled, bringing   
   the total to 28,000 tickets cancelled, literaly due to lack of   
   snow. The last 30 cm of snow trucked in to cover the general   
   admission area vanished in a warm rain, leaving the area a muddy   
   pit. Talk about money down the drain, it was trucked in at huge   
   expense from 200 km away and has now melted and run away.   
      
   Even at Whistler Olympic Alpine skiers are feeling exposed rocks   
   take chunks out of their skis during practice runs, and are seeing   
   the holes in the skis when they reach the bottom.   
      
   To bad Washington, DC can't put all that snow on a train bound for   
   Vancouver. -)
