– The Scientists: Ph.D.s, often with strong industry ties, who may or may not have experience in climate science, but are ready to denounce the scientific consensus
– The Bloggers: They flood the Web with “news” and opinion, ready to be picked up by Drudge, Fox News, and the rest of the right-wing echo chamber
– The “Think Tankers”: Ready spokesmen associated with impressive-sounding organizations, often founded by themselves
– The Weathermen: Meteorologists, statisticians, and corporate scientists not associated with a think tank or university, but happy to give reporters their “expert” opinion

Wow Tenney, pretty late to the party aren't you? This list is two years old.

Grist had it then as "secret".

Wow. A list of "secret" publicly available websites.

I knew right away this couldn't be anything new because this website is little more than a cut and paste regurgitator - no original thought here.

What's gonna be fun is seeing how far you can run.
