I was a stockbroker back then and all I can say is that it was what I observed and heard. No reliable sources that I know of. I actually had client buy Dome Pete. One of my clients's brother was a Swiss Bank Analyst. He came over to Canada to research Dome Pete and before he left for Switzerland, he said one word----- SELL! NOPE!

A BP spokesman said it was entirely legitimate to fund the dinner, the company having enjoyed a “long association with Dr Pachauri”. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/climatechange/7177323/Climate-change-research-bungle.html So there you go, no conflict of interest between the IPCC and Big Oil then. :) I thought last week Pachauri was blaming Big Oil for funding the sceptics.

IPCC’s “Africagate” blunder as told by Dr. Richard North

Instead, the author was quoting a friend who was describing a school science fair. That is misleading. I read the article. I know what it is about. You are right, it's about scientists cheating. Please, I wasn't trying to start a internet fight here. I was just making an observation. When I read "this pretty much sums up the article" and saw the quote, I clicked on the link to read the article and was expecting that quote to be made by a scientist describing what they were doing. When it wasn't, I felt a like the poster was exaggerating what the article contained. That's precisely what we are so mad at the climate scientists for doing. Imagine you are on the global warming camp--wouldn't you be mad at that post for being misleading? For taking a quote out of context to make it seem more damning than it actually is? Please try to see what I am saying. Don't fall for the "It's not as bad when my side does it" thing. Wouldn't you think it horrible if a warming site had a quote from an article saying "Phil Jones was found innocent," yet it was mearly a prediction from a friend of the author? Not trying to make a big deal of this, but I don't appreciate the insults. To me, it’s obvious that the quote makes it seem like an actual scientist was quoted saying that in the article.
