Frank Bi has a wonderful petition over at the International Journal of Inactivism, calling for hacks like Christoper Walter (the lurid Viscount Monckton of Brenchley) to find the courage of their alleged convictions and sue Al Gore and NASAโs James Hansen for fomenting the global scientific โconspiracyโ about climate change.
Really, if these guys had a shred of evidence โ or dignity โ theyโd bring their vacuous argument before a judge and let the case be tested. I, personally, would love to see a jury trial โ a serious opportunity to put the evidence before a dozen people who would test Hansenโs science against Moncktonโs palaver.
Anyway, itโs August and youโre cruising the โnet instead of working: cruise on over to IJI and sign up. Iโm confident these clowns wonโt sue, but baiting them is worth the effort.
