Leaked computer files from the "Climategate" scandal
"This isn't just the smoking gun pointing to the fraud of global warming...it's a mushroom cloud!"
For years information on "climate change" has been manipulated, suppressed, and destroyed by "top scientists" - and the U.S. government's present administration may have been complicit - even in the face of the recent EPA cover-ups. The Cap and Trade bill was nothing more than an attempt to globally control the world's resources, and is part of a much larger plan...
The leaked files were from a climatologist/programmer at the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, trying to update a huge statistical database (11,000 files) of important climate data between 2006 and 2009.
Data had been compiled by the CRU from hundreds of weather stations around the world about temperature and precipitation measurements from 1901 to 2006 (sun/cloud computer simulations, etc) and used to be considered "precise data" - - - and was considered the backbone of climate science.
...but the data files were a mess!
The CRU programmer expressed deep concerns about huge gaps in data, bug-filled programs, and worried about all the GUESSWORK he'd been doing. His comments suggested the problems went back many years. (The CRU at East Anglia University was considered by many as the world's leading climate research agency.)
...but it's worse than all the EPA's cover-ups. It's more damaging than the climate scientists who did "tricks" on data to hide the decline in global temperatures, because they couldn't explain the recent global cooling.
CBSNews.com Describes its Enormous Impact on Policymakers:
"In global warming circles, the CRU wields outsize influence: It claims the world's largest temperature data set, and its work and mathematical models were incorporated into the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) 2007 report. The report is what the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) acknowledged it 'relies on most heavily' when concluding carbon dioxide emissions endanger public health and should be regulated."
Download the File:
The programmer admited in many instances how screwed up all the data is (sample comments below). Very boring reading, but it is only posted here as documentation.
The original file, which is 274 pages long, and is in a TEXT (.txt) format. The text file may be too large to open in Windows Notepad, so I have saved a copy in Windows Document format (.doc)

Sample Comments from CRU Programmer with Page Numbers
- "But what are all those monthly files? DON'T KNOW, UNDOCUMENTED. Wherever I look, there are data files, no info about what they are other than their names. And that's useless ..." (Page 17)
- "It's botch after botch after botch." (Page 18)
- "The biggest immediate problem was the loss of an hour's edits to the program, when the network died ... no explanation from anyone, I hope it's not a return to last year's troubles ... This surely is the worst project I've ever attempted. Eeeek." (Page 31)
- "Oh, GOD, if I could start this project again and actually argue the case for junking the inherited program suite." (Page 37)
- "... this should all have been rewritten from scratch a year ago!" (Page 45)
- "Am I the first person to attempt to get the CRU databases in working order?!!" (Page 47)
- "As far as I can see, this renders the (weather) station counts totally meaningless." (Page 57)
- "COBAR AIRPORT AWS (data from an Australian weather station) cannot start in 1962, it didn't open until 1993!" (Page 71)
- "What the hell is supposed to happen here? Oh yeah -- there is no 'supposed,' I can make it up. So I have : - )" (Page 98)
- "You can't imagine what this has cost me -- to actually allow the operator to assign false WMO (World Meteorological Organization) codes!! But what else is there in such situations? Especially when dealing with a 'Master' database of dubious provenance ..." (Page 98)
- "So with a somewhat cynical shrug, I added the nuclear option -- to match every WMO possible, and turn the rest into new stations ... In other words what CRU usually do. It will allow bad databases to pass unnoticed, and good databases to become bad ..." (Pages 98-99)
- "OH F--- THIS. It's Sunday evening, I've worked all weekend, and just when I thought it was done, I'm hitting yet another problem that's based on the hopeless state of our databases." (Page 241).
- "This whole project is SUCH A MESS ..." (Page 266)
