As opposed to e-mail hackinggate?
I want all the "ethical" deniers here to come out of the closet and state irrefutably that they believe that hacking government e-mail servers, stealing confidential communications, and publishing them on the internet is a violation of national and international laws, and has no place in scientific discourse. Let us see how many actually believe that such behavior is reprehensible, illegal, and unethical, and call for the illegal practice to stop. (This should be interesting).
That's right.. Blame the Post Office for delivering the bad news..
WHO exactly did the hacking? You don't know -- do ya? T'was not a random attack. Could have been done in concert with a "whistle-blower" member of the Climate Science community --- couldn't it?
Are whistle-blowers criminals? Do they need evidence to back up their assertions? Of course they do..
Much good came of this exposure..
The post office didn't open George's mail and then tell Paul that based on letters they opened, that George has been sleeping with his wife (even though George has only written to Paul's wife to tell her that she was concerned about Paul's erratic behavior at work). Because if the post office had done that, that would have been just as illegal, and just as unethical as what the deniers have done.
So, we can count you out as an "ethical denier". Got it. That's one down. Anyone else?
