Interesting Glimpse…
The Heartland Institute has long been a leading “denier” of Global Climate Change (& tobacco effects, too). But they have been ultra-secretive about the sources of their funding and their ultimate agenda.
Leaked documents have recently provided a glimpse into the “belly of the beast”. It’s available at the link I’ve provided…and at numerous others:
Update: One of the documents appears to have been forged. All of the documents were likely obtained illegally!
I think this is simply a case of real scientists wanting to fight back against the global warming pushers and their junk science. Thank goodness for senator Inhofe.

Is the heartland inst those guys who pushed the 1970s global cooling scare too? Ooops, my bad, that was “scientists and weather experts” back then too. And I too have a google search link to back up my “source”: http://www.google.com/search?q=1970s+global+cooling&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en&client=safari
I bookmark and come to this blog for relevant local weather discussions. Up until now I have not been disappointed. Looking forward to your return to local weather, or I’ll be using that google “research tool” to find a replacement weather blog!
