Independence Day for Anthony

Imback
me

Although he’s been running this blog as a labor of love for more than ten years, Anthony has never had more than a week or so off to relax and recharge.

Long time readers will remember me from the pre-Climategate days and the tumultuous period during and after.

I’ll be running the blog for the next couple of months while Anthony takes some well-deserved time off.

To introduce myself to readers who don’t have squatters’ rights that reach back into that distant past, here are a few posts from that ancient time, the old days, when the Internet ran on steam.

The CRUtape Letters™, an Alternative Explanation.

Climategate—The CTM story

Climategate–the Made Up Story, or Mr. Assange, WUWT?

And my favorite overall in the competition for best title.

I forwarded the email before I was against it

So things may be a little different around here through August.

I hope we can have some fun.

And don’t hate change.

Anyone else that still wants to volunteer to be a moderator, let me know via the contact form.

Also, I don’t read every comment on every post so if you need to tell me something, use the contact form.

Bob,
There you are! Can you elaborate on why I’ve not seen any of your posts or much less any comments here on WUWT? I’ve always enjoyed your input and was wondering why you seemed to have disappeared off the face of the earth. Was worried you had crossed over to the other side.
Thanks,
K-Bob

Are you a Luke warmer? I’m not. I’m an outright Denier.

From an old timer, welcome back CTM; safe travels to Anthony.
Above comments speaking of they who have not posted recently, I have not seen anything from RGB@Duke in quite some time. Still around I hope.

Charles, my thanks for all that you’ve done for WUWT over the years, topped by this.
Well done, that man!

FWIW, I’ll pitch in some.
Hope you enjoy the run. I’m sure Anthony is having fun!

We’ll try to be gentle, Charles.
Happy travels, Anthony.
(Just as I typed that, with the radio on NPR, I hear (approximate quote) “Climate change could impact places in the US where its already hot.” ) OH NOES! WUWT, we still need you.

Charles in Charge!
A super twofer. Anthony gets a break and WUWT gets one of the best blog moderators on the planet.

What would we do without friends.

I guess you’re the guy who straightened me out on etiquette the other day (not allowed to call someone a science d•n••r) so your moderation bodes well for those who sometimes join the discussion and have a contrarian view to most here.
You were fair and friendly – that’s a good start in communication.
Cheers

Mickey Reno says, ” “Climate change could impact places in the US where its already hot.” ) OH NOES! WUWT, we still need you.”
On a May road tour to the ocean, we passed through a small town whose welcome arch said, “It’s the Climate”. I will say this town did have beautiful weather. So I decided not to take it as a double entendre by the sneaking municipal government announcing its intentions to support bad science and expensive green globalist policies, under mayoral authority.
But I could be wrong…
–WUWT, we still need you!
