Benthic Bacteria Redux
I just received this in my inbox. Sigh…
Subject: Your Blog About Klein, Gupta, et al
Message: A little fact checking shows that the Journal of Geoclimatic Studies is a peer reviewed journal issued by the Institute of Geoclimatic Studies, Climatological Department, Okinawa University, Okinawa OK-184NJ, Japan. So much for the “it’s a fake article in a fake journal”
There is a Okinawa University. However, there is not a “Climatological Department” [sic] at that university. The so-called editors of this “peer reviewed” [sic] journal do not exist at Okinawa University. The “journal” is not peer reviewed. The “journal” does not exist except for the website. There is only one “paper” in said “journal”.
I was hoping this bateria thing would have disappeared by today. But it seems that a few loonies want to cling to anything they can.

ha!
that’s awesome … the fact that idiots believe this crap is actually quite telling of how driven by ideology they are (not that that doesn’t happen on all sides)
Well, we had:
1) The Benny Peiser attack on the consensus and naomi Oreskes’s essay in Science.
2) We had the big publicity for Kristen Byrnes’s “ponderthemaunder”.
3) Then we had the publicity for the Monckton / Schulte / Ferguson / Morano reprise of Peiser’s attack on Oreskes.
4) Then, we have this one (with Peiser spreading it).
So, nothing new…
Nature had it best, we want to see the other papers in the journal, they looked quite interesting.
Loonies everywhere, like Tim Flannery who claims that AGW has prevented circumcising in Kenya… hmmm
