Heh, it seems it touched a sensitive spot. Tom Nelson pretty much nails this one. In response to a tweet made today by self admitted document thief Peter Gleick where he promotes this story:
I made this response which Tom Nelson picked up on.
Peter Gleick: Stop “attacking” me by reminding people about that incident last year when I was caught stealing documents (and almost certainly forging another one)
Watts Up With That @wattsupwiththat
@PeterGleick for your next trick, “how to fool people using document theft”
Gleick responds: @wattsupwiththat Ah, YOUR standard trick: when you can’t respond to the science, attack and insult the scientists. Classy.
Flashback: Study: Gleick Forged ‘Fakegate’ Memo | Heartland Institute
March 14, 2012 – A computer analysis of the “climate strategy memo” at the heart of the widely publicized global warming scandal called “Fakegate” concludes disgraced climate scientist Peter Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute, is the most likely author.
Les Johnson adds a dose of reality:

Dr. Phil Jones – CRU emails – 5th July, 2005
“The scientific community would come down on me in no uncertain terms if I said the world had cooled from 1998. OK it has but it is only 7 years of data and it isn’t statistically significant….”
Dr. Phil Jones – CRU emails – 7th May, 2009
‘Bottom line: the ‘no upward trend’ has to continue for a total of 15 years before we get worried.’

[Q] B – “Do you agree that from 1995 to the present there has been no statistically-significant global warming”
[A] “Yes, but only just”.

William:
It appears the Warmists have changed their minds.
There is no need to worry about a lack of warming for 17 years, although they do appear to be getting sensitive to the skeptics who keep bringing that inconvenient fact up.
It will be interesting to hear the stories and tall tales that will be concocted to explain global cooling.
There are past cycles of warming and cooling that correlate with solar magnetic cycle changes. As it appears the solar magnetic cycle has been interrupted it is a no brainer to predict cooling. There are the first signs of cooling.

You might not be able to say with certainty that Gleik forged the document, but you could provide a confidence interval in which one would fail to reject the hypothesis Gleik forged the document.

I wonder if Dr. Lew and his sidekick could run a survey for our lying buddy Pete?
They could ask about Peter Gleick’s science ethics.

Jimbo… Really like the info you provide. Open question for all…
Is there one overall document or video (or a few) you might use as an introduction to counter claims of extreme climate change? What might they be? A group is making the classic alarmist claims about increases in climate extremes, to prop up their agenda for funding radical political agendas. Thank you. Any favorite documents, videos, graphs or links would be appreciated.
Hey, Ben, good question. From all his excellent posts, Jimbo is the one to ask. Suggestion: try watching the “Recent Comments” in the left margin above on this page. Put your Q in all the threads Jimbo comments on… MAYBE he will see your Q. I’m sure if he sees it, he will answer.
Wish I could help. All I can say, is use Bing.com to search the internet for videos.
The Los Angeles times had an article about a new NASA report that was commented upon by a Peter Gleick. [url]http://articles.latimes.com/2013/may/04/nation/la-na-nasa-climate-20130504[/url] Sadly, my comment was censored by them. I’m at a loss to know why. My language was courteous, my comments factual.
Perhaps it was the Paragraph: ‘Was this comment by Peter “identity theft” Gleick? I mean the environmental activist who first denied then later admitted impersonating impersonating a Heartland Institute Board member to illegally obtain confidential documents, wrongfully circulated them and misrepresented their contents? If not, don’t you owe it to him to distinguish the two? What is this Peter Gleick’s connection to NASA?’
Thinking of Warmists who censor debate, does anyone know what’s happening with Tamino? He hasn’t posted since April 19.
