The end of the article kinda rips Wadhams a new one for being ridiculous.  I don't summarily dismiss conspiracies due to the historical evidence that a great many shenanigans have indeed occurred and will in the future, but it's pretty clear that one of the three fell down a flight of stairs all by himself, unless his long term partner killed him.  We're way into crazy land if two people had "random accidents" but the third was done in by what's essentially family.

Since they were studying arctic ice, which has been building, well...  Wadhams is either unhinged, or really wants attention, possibly both.  He's old enough for dementia, not a big stretch.

If he has an issue, it's that he's an asshole and simply calls people idiots when they make a post like yours, without explaining why they're idiots.  While your post is idiotic, it's something that can be cured.  It probably wont be of course, but not for a lack of capacity since you've managed such a complicated task as posting on the internet on multiple occasions.

Steven Goddard has an EE masters and a BS in geology.  Many of the "Climate Scientists" are similarly educated in loosely related fields, particularly geology, which covers such things as ice core records directly.

Regardless of his formal education, you've come to the misinformed conclusion that one needs such a thing to ascertain that the thermometers in use were both accurate and properly used in the past.  It's not as if mankind has only recently developed the capability to measure the temperature, "Time of Observation Bias" is being thrown around as if it's at all relevant to the hilariously drastic alterations being made.

For some inexplicable reason(I politely say inexplicable, but really it's just because people are fucking stupid and will believe anything) the media has managed to convince a not so insignificant portion of the population that their fathers and grandfathers were simply incapable of using a thermometer, despite these unevolved individuals being trained to do so and making a career of it.

They came up with this magical explanation for why they were adjusting urban heat island warped readings up, and adjusting past readings from properly located stations down.  So began "TOB", the tiny fraction of a percent difference in annual temperature that you'd get from occasionally having a significantly hotter day the day before, and getting a higher than actual reading if you were somehow too damned stupid to reset the maximum at some time other than the heat of the day.  It still wouldn't take over a degree away from the annual temperatures even if everyone were so blithely ignorant of the operation of their equipment.

If you want to believe crackpot pseudoscience, that's your problem, but I don't need your (wholly unjustified) arrogance from a position of ignorance, or your insults or attitude. Please refrain from communicating with me further, and I will be happy to respond in kind.

Well, he did start off by saying a dedicated environmentalist educated in one of the top universities in the world was just a guy with no credentials.

It would be terrible to change his ways for the random asshole on the internet if he's going to dismiss someone that actually helped write climate modeling software for Uncle.

I know, I just figured if he's going to shoot Goddard, he's gotta shoot me too, probably repeatedly.

Mind-blowing temperature fraud at NOAA– Real Science

The measured US temperature data from USHCN shows that the US is on a long-term cooling trend. But the reported temperatures from NOAA show a strong warming trend. They accomplish this through a spectacular hockey stick of data tampering, which corrupts the US temperature trend by almost two degrees.

The biggest component of this fraud is making up data. Almost half of all reported US temperature data is now fake. They fill in missing rural data with urban data to create the appearance of non-existent US warming. The depths of this fraud is breathtaking, but completely consistent with the fraudulent profession which has become known as “climate science”…

Nah. It's the mercury in dental fillings. That's why the Dentist killed Cecil the Lion.

You are all wrong, it's them chemtrails.

We might have to stay on topic else people get hurt.

He was probably referring to the Planned Parenthood bit, as any flame war between people with a conscience and their rabid defenders would soon turn into a bloodbath filled with banning offenses, like the one I cleverly worked into this.

That's unlikely, as he fled his home.

Probably to escape the media.

He's getting the shaft most likely, he apparently bought a permit and hired a professional guide.  He'd have to be one fucking stupid bastard to intentionally hunt a tourist attraction, when he had already dropped $50k for a legal permit to hunt a lion.  It looks like his guide figured it was easier to get a lion to leave the preserve than it was to find one off the preserve, but the world wants to lynch his ass regardless.

If he hadn't shot that particular lion, no one would give a shit, just like they didn't give a shit for the other thousands that were hunted for trophies this year.
