''I really wish I could be more positive about the … material, but I swear I
pulled every trick out of my sleeve trying to milk something out of that.…
I don’t think it’d be productive to try and juggle the chronology statistics
any more than I already have—they just are what they are … I think I’ll
have to look for an option where I can let this little story go as it is.''




''Remember all the fun we had last year over 1995 global temperatures, with
the early release of information (via Australia), “inventing” the December
monthly value, letters to Nature, etc., etc.?
I think we should have a cunning plan about what to do this year, simply
to avoid a lot of wasted time.''

We feed this selectively to Nick Nuttall (of the United Nations Environment
Program) (who has had this in the past and seems now to expect special
treatment) so that he can write an article for the silly season. We could also
give this to Neville Nicholls (climate scientist at the Bureau of Meteorology
Research Centre in Melbourne, Australia)?''






''Sounds like you guys have been busy doing good things for the cause.
I would like to weigh in on two important questions—
Distribution for Endorsements—
I am very strongly in favor of as wide and rapid a distribution as possible
for endorsements. I think the only thing that counts is numbers. The media
is going to say “1000 scientists signed” or “1500 signed”. No one is going
to check if it is 600 with PhDs versus 2000 without. They will mention the
prominent ones, but that is a different story.''
