A more detailed analysis of the Climate-gate e-mails

Steven Hayward of the Weekly Standard has a detailed analysis of the e-mails obtained from the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit. It is quite revealing. The e-mails show the bias of the principal people involved. A convenient summary from within Hayward's piece:

"The emails do not in and of themselves reveal that catastrophic climate change scenarios are a hoax or without any foundation. What they reveal is something problematic for the scientific community as a whole, namely, the tendency of scientists to cross the line from being disinterested investigators after the truth to advocates for a preconceived conclusion about the issues at hand."
