The Climatic Blog War of 2007
There is a war of words going on between two scientific blogs over my project at www.surfacestations.org. The RealClimate blog, operated by pro AGW global warming scientists Penn State’s Dr.…
My Solar Anniversary
Last week the Chico News and Review published an editorial (A smoked Red Herring) with my name right at the top, lambasting me for my investigations into climate change. That’s…
My New Toy: Global Climate Modeling on my PC
