The RealClimate look at the CRU hack seems to have some sanity.
Not that I'm disputing that much "science" involves selling to what the funding organization think is hot at the moment.

Maybe this will help them focus on markets or totally distort content
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
