The Web Discloses Inconvenient Climate Truths
(November 30, 2009) For anyone who doubts the power of the Internet to shine light on darkness, the news of the month is how digital technology helped uncover a secretive group of scientists who suppressed data, froze others out of the debate, and flouted freedom-of-information laws.

In Climate Hack Story, Could Talk of Cover-Up Be as Serious as Crime?
(November 23, 2009) The University of East Anglia, whose stolen documents caused a furor of excitement among climate skeptics over the weekend, said today that it had called in police to investigate possible criminal activity.
