  1. I'm disappointed in Cory Doctrow on the ClimateGate issue. You'd think he would be a little more pro-data.
  2. Taking a math class and don't want to show your work? There is a career for you in climate science!
  3. Climate change models contained code that would fail, but never report the errors http://bit.ly/7sWRLh
  4. Blog Post: ClimateGate: Free The Data http://bit.ly/58xJgn
  5. RT @sarahk47: Just got mail addressed to "Ben Dover" at our address. Scared to open it, afraid it might be from the govt | heh
  6. Climate change is too important to be debated in the dark. Free the data! #CRU #ClimateGate
  7. @ceidotorg files an intent to sue against @NASA and GISS for climate change data http://bit.ly/4sg6pf
  8. @D_B_Inman I asked him on his blog where he got the data. I'll let you know if I find anything.
  9. .@dailydish there are 71,700 contractors. Maybe the author feels that a translator is a hired gun, but I don't
  10. .@dailydish Just so you know, the "hired guns" graph on your blog is wrong. There aren't 71,700 private security contractors in Afghanistan
  11. @D_B_Inman Yep... found the problem. There are 71,700 contractors of all kinds in Afghanistan. Fewer than 4000 are private security
  12. @D_B_Inman The circles are accurate... the guy who did it wouldn't make a mistake like that. He's usually pretty good
  13. @D_B_Inman except that 96% of them don't have guns. I'll look into it, but I think he's full of s***
  14. @D_B_Inman Take note that only 4% of "private security contractors" are armed, but then he says "that's a lot of hired guns"
  15. @D_B_Inman Any idea where he's getting those numbers? They're not in his spreadsheets?
  16. @VodkaPundit John Carpenter's "The Thing" is the Mona Lisa of practical effects. 27 year old and still gorgeous
  17. Comforting: @justkarl says Iran tweet is wrong. Parliament considered it, never passed it
  18. Megan McArdle: "we need to be less romantic about the practice of science" http://bit.ly/4twz9h
  19. RT @justkarl: Iran passes law: Jews, Christians to wear colored badges http://is.gd/525rz REALLY?!?
  20. RT @IMAO_: Note to Self: Don't assume ever large metal thing on a circuit board is ground
