I get the feeling there is no amount of evidence you would find compelling.Quite possibly, in fact I'm sure that this is occassionally the case with individual researchers whether we are talking about the fields of Economics, Theoretical Physics, Climatology or any other field of scientific study. This, however, is not a reasonably compelling reason to throw out the baby with the bath water, so to speak, any more than one oddfellow's penchant for "tapping his toes" in airport bathrooms is a compelling reason to dismiss and discard centuries worth of socially conservative considerations and contributions to the modern political discourse.
The work of an irresponsible scientist should not be accepted at face value. And AGW scientists are behaving irresponsibly.
No scientist's word is to be accepted at face value when it comes to issues of science, regardless of issues of responsible or irresponsible. Climate science is based upon supporting evidences not the reputations or behaviors of individuals. Thus far you have presented no objective, compelling evidence of any single scientist who has acted irresponsibly, yet alone that all or even most climate scientists are behaving irresponsibly.
