Hackers steal electronic data from top climate research center
Hackers broke into a server used by scientists who are working to prove global warming. A number of their e-mail messages were posted online in their entirety. So naturally, the scientists claim their messages were taken out of context.
Pardon my ignorance, but I always thought science was about finding out how things work. When scientists work at proving a theory, rather than investigating an occurrence to determine what theory explains the facts, you end up with bad science and ignoring facts that don't fit in with your theories.
But I suppose that as long as the government is funding this kind of science, then what scientist will be honest about his finding if it will put him out of a job, and destroy his future government funded projects.
