More Bogus Global Warming Science

The Sunday Telegraph reports on new "flaws" identified in the supposedly authoritative global warming account of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

Frankly, I wouldn't use the term flaws. Using my gritty patois, I suggest the IPCC pulled crap out of thin air to buttress a very weak argument.

Examples cited:
The publication of inaccurate data on the potential of wave power to produce electricity around the world, which was wrongly attributed to the website of a commercial wave-energy company.

Claims based on information in press releases and newsletters.

New examples of statements based on student dissertations, two of which were unpublished.

More claims which were based on reports produced by environmental pressure groups.
Reportedly, the IPCC has issued a statement insisting that everything they document is, in more gritty patois, good poop, "critically assessed" with a review of "the quality and validity of each source."

I'm in agreement, sorta. As previously mentioned, it's poop alright, more steamy than good and largely pulled out of thin air.
