The problem with the great international conspiracy of climate sceptics is that it’s so small and innocent that a disappointed warmist who steals documents from the Heartland Institute finds they must fake the main one to get media attention.
Sounds a bit like their tree-ring research.


The faked document is a spectacular own goal for the warmistas. Anthony Watts has a prime suspect.
Sheesh. They couldn’t even fake it well. This was so obviously written by a warmist, it made me laugh out loud:
Yeah, because sceptics don’t really think the warmists are wrong. Oh, no. We’re trying to turn people against Science! Because we’re, you know, bad and stuff.
Lesson of the day: if you’re going to try to use fake documents to smear people who’ve spent the best part of the last decade methodically, forensically, and painstakingly tearing your theories and arguments to shreds, make sure you’ve thought of everything. Then forget it. They’re only doing this because they’re good at noticing other people’s mistakes.
