Manntastic behavior on Twitter – harassment of Dr. Judith Curry by @michaelemann As you may know, both testified in congressional hearings this week. Mann apparently can’t tolerate a second opinion.
Dr. Roger Pielke Jr. calls out this petty and childish behavior.
Dr. Curry responds:

“..“Is there not a single climate scientist out there who will call this out as improper?”…”
Er… doing that would mean that they would lose their jobs and become unemployable in their chosen profession. You should be asking:
“Is there not a single climate scientist out there willing to give up their job, their home and their family to make a protest which will not be successful?”
To which the answer is ‘No’…
The USA Government has fabricated earlier scare scenarios similar in many ways to this global warming scare. One was a forecast that fizzed, that US citizens were about to suffer an epidemic of cancers caused by the increased use of man-made chemicals. The 1980s story is detailed in fine, referenced detail in the excellent book “The Apocalyptics” by Edith Efron.
My main take from the Efron book concerned the ending of the scam. The end was marked by the public migration of several of the top alarmists, to the other side. Game, set, match.
That is why this call for honest scientists to come forward to be counted is vital. If global warming and the cancer scare follow something of a similar path, then personalities swapping sides might be a critical signal that the end is nigh. I read it that way. Geoff
hmmm, but the cancer rates for usa are now 2 in 3…
yes diagnostics are better than before but it does seem rather high
ditto other 1st world nations..the food the chemicals ???
Um, in part, not dying of something else. Rates of 2 in 3 seem high, unless we are talking lifetime, for all kinds of cancer.
Seriously, Mann deserves jail time for what he has done.
By default, Michael Mann just indicted himself as purely a political animal and a shill for leftist (Democrat) political ideology. Give a man enough rope….
Judging from his own words, he is now a political operative for the Democrats. Which explains his attack on a competent female whose very presence invalidates him.
Mann is so much like the plastic/vinyl inflatable clown, bottom weighted gas bag shaped like a fat headed bowling pin that I had as a kid. He keeps popping back up when knocked over but when he finally blows a seam he will crumple like a flat beach ball. I will probably happen as fast as Humpty Dumpty’s fall.
I’m not sure if Humpty Dumpty was so arrogant as to claim himself as “Distinguished” but he got his name/place in the history of fables. Perhaps Mann’s distinguishment will be similar.
Isn’t it time someone applied superstatistical analysis (designed for complex nonequilibrium systems) to climate extreme events?

Silence on this suggests that it has been tried but the results obtained weren’t scary or alarmist enough.
NYT or something is probably pulling-together another article portraying “reluctant activist” Mann as the victim yet again.
If the most powerful man in the world cannot get support for his condemnation of the global warming scam then what are the chances of mere mortals?

The words of Mark Twain seem appropriate , ‘It is better to keep your mouth shut and appear a fool rather than open it and remove any possible doubt ‘ Mr Mann should take note!
The State is the Stage on which the Pathalogicals Play.
