Rumor has it that climate change is real
According to Ron Bailey at Reason.com
Stress - this is a rumor. However, the rumor says that next week Richard Muller will release the latest Berkeley Earth Surface Temperature analysis of surface temperature data going back as far as the 18th century. Muller, once skeptical of the temperature records that showed considerable global warming in recent decades, set up BEST to reanalyze that data.and
Watch out for the look-over-there act from the usual characters. The Pielkesphere is parsing furiously. Rumor has it that Tony Watts has gone into full lockdown mode, that Steve McIntyre has sold all his penny stock and will be flying back from England with the CRU server, but more importantly, Tuesday is the last day to have papers considered in the next IPCC report.The rumors say that new BEST reanalysis will show that global average temperature has increased by 1.5 degrees Celsius since pre-industrial times and will suggest that most of the warming since the 1950s is the result of increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere.

Did anyone here go over to "Reason" and read the comments? Clearly no point in trying to reason with any of those folks. Makes me think of what Lou was saying today at http://www.grinzo.com/energy/2012/07/27/on-the-role-of-climate-activism/
Like, as in, anything little ole me can do is futile.

Not true. You can phone your elected representatives and leave messages expressing your concern about climate change. If they get enough of these, even the neocons will have to take notice of the fact that they actually need votes to remain in office.
