So the fact that "top" climate scientists (Hadley) for the IPCC conspired to manipulate data to hide evidence of global cooling while engaging in academic witch hunts to eliminate scientists skeptical of man-made climate change doesn't worry you? But I guess alarmists are not going to be effected by the scandal, because they will allow nothing whatsoever to corrupt their religious belief system.

Mann discusses tactics for screening and delaying postings at Real Climate.

Mann tells Jones that it would be nice to ‘”contain” the putative Medieval Warm Period’.

Prior to AR3 Briffa talks of pressure to produce a tidy picture of “apparent unprecedented warming in a thousand years or more in the proxy data”. Briffa says it was just as warm a thousand years ago.

Wigley discusses fixing an issue with sea surface temperatures in the context of making the results look both warmer but still plausible.

And the list goes on. The evidence keeps mounting that most climate research now being funded is for the purpose of supporting the IPCC’s politics, not to find out how nature works.

You may claim that a email is taken out of context, but when these "scientists" making notes in code does so that he/she can document what the code is actually doing at that stage, so that anyone who looks at it later can figure out why this function doesn’t plot past 1960. In this case, it is not allowing all of the temperature data to be plotted. Growing season data (summer months when the new tree rings are formed) past 1960 is thrown out because “these will be artificially adjusted to look closer to the real temperatures”, which implies some post processing routine.
Data that has been “artificially adjusted to look closer to the real temperatures” is false data, yielding a false result.
