In 2005, Scientific American reported: “Scientific American took a sample of 30 of the 1,400 signatories (of the Oregon Petition Project) claiming to hold a Ph.D. in a climate-related science. Of the 26 we were able to identify in various databases, 11 said they still agreed with the petition —- one was an active climate researcher, two others had relevant expertise, and eight signed based on an informal evaluation. Six said they would not sign the petition today, three did not remember any such petition, one had died, and five did not answer repeated messages. Crudely extrapolating, the petition supporters include a core of about 200 climate researchers – a respectable number, though rather a small fraction of the climatological community."

The 'Friends of Science' is an oil-industry-funded group set up to deny the science of climate change and has embarrassed itself by trying to overstate its connections to the University of Calgary.

NewsBusters.org -Exposing Liberal Media Bias, like Fox news and the 700 Club is a great source of completely unbiased/non-agended/unembedded god's honest truth -NOT.

Basically most of these sources are about descrediting anything/anyone which does not support a conservative political agenda for businesses and industries that do not like regulations that limit their ability to pollute or poison us or our environment. What the majority of scientists call sound science, they call junk science. And what they call 'sound science', the majority of scientists usually call junk science. Nice try Sponge Bob.

Back on topic? I was down at the Capitol tonight and noticed how much more visible the new US Bank tower is from the Capitol than any other skyscrapers. I think the crown will make a big difference. It makes it just "neck craning" height.
