Credentials are an odd commodity. Having an advanced degree guarantees a certain amount of competency but not having one does not rule out a mastery of any particular subject.
Does McIntyre's top of his class mathematics degree and a career working with statistics trump Michael Mann's dodgy unreleased methods and a newly minted PhD? Apparently that is more a political question than anything else.
Did you read about his (mann's) hockey stick filter being duplicated? An exact match to his hockey stick has finally been produced....it took some seriously strange, and truly unprecedented programming tricks to make it happen....no wonder he wants to keep his methodology out of the public eye.
