climate scientist Michael Mann, it's «simply an exclamation mark on what we already knew.»
Nor do I
think that your word «citizen auditor», one of Judy's terms that I don't use myself and rather dislike, does justice to the fact that the «core» statistical commenters at
Climate Audit and related blogs (Jean S, UC, Ross McKitrick, Roman Mureika, Hu McCulloch, Nic Lewis, Ryan O'Donnell, Jeff Id, Lucia and myself) to name only a few) are more «credentialed» in statistical
analysis than the «scientists» that are being criticized.

You would
think researchers would welcome opportunities to balance that vast library of one - sided research with an
analysis of the natural causes of
climate change — so that they can evaluate the relative impact of human activities, more accurately predict future changes, and help ensure that communities, states and nations can plan for, mitigate and adapt to those impacts.
