#2 It appears the DoE have actual standards for scientific research. Good for them. And us, if they can continue to stick to their guns against the idealists running the current administration.

I dunno, Moose...seems to me that in addition to the DoE being overseen by socialists and Lysenkoists, there are waaaay too many people with a vested interest in keeping the AGW gravy train rolling (*cough* Congress *cough*). Doing so helps preserve their own job security and provides lucrative external opportunities (both legitimate employment and good old-fashioned graft). So therefore...

"The DoE peer review panel will now ~~sift through the report and decide if American taxpayers should continue~~ coordinate its activities with the the overall Climategate whitewash efffort in creating a justification to fund the unit."

There. Fixed it.

#5 I dunno, Moose...

'Twas I made that comment, Ricky bin Ricardo, not Anonymoose. Anonymoose is much too masculine to go about clad in periwinkle highlighter. ;-) Had it been his comment, as the article poster, it would have been in yellow.

#9 No problem, Ricky dear. Had it been Anonymoose, the comment would also have reflected a much wider lifetime of experience as well.

#10 addition to the DoE being overseen by socialists and Lysenkoists

DOE's research is done at their Los Alamos, Sandia and Pacific Northwest labs where the same supercomputers used for nuclear weapons design and effects modeling and the like are used for climate modeling. I have some contact with each of those labs and have yet to encounter socialism or Lsyenkoist sentiments coloring research. FWIW
