So I woke up this morning and decided I'd write a nice article about the CRU email leak. As I was reading up about it, I couldn't help, but discuss it with Steffi. She hadn't really heard much about it, but still almost immediately linked me to an article by Bob McDonald the host of CBC Radio's "Quirks and Quarks" (an excellent popular science show) about "ClimateGate" as it's being called.

After reading the article, I figured I could write an article, but so many of the same ideas I had were already so eloquently formulated by Mr. McDonald that I didn't feel that it would be right to write my own version.

I strongly suggest you take a look at the article whether or not you're scientifically minded.
