Please fix! Apologies if this seems an unduly tiny nit, but I really like for “our side’s” communications to be free of obvious flaws: the chip was the Intel 486, not the “468″ as twice stated above.

Not only has his co-authored article got plenty of coverage, its allowed an idiotic article by someone from the LSE to be printed in the Guardian, which throws up a large number of strawmen, illogical arguements, etc. And he then appears as an interviewee in Analysis on BBC Radio 4 where the question is posed as to whether it would be better to give up on mitigation of AGW and save the money for other things. You have to wonder how he finds the time to conduct research on climate change! Of course, if you dont bother..... Pielke seems to be all over the place at the moment.

Isn't the situation getting to the point where we should start considering cutting back on things like this .... shouldn't we be boycotting the Olympics etc not only to highlight the issues here, but also to cut back on CO2 emissions! How critical are the circumstances? led street lights – do we really need to have the lights (and other services) burning through the night?

Thanks Joe. I'm really thrilled and tickled about being selected. (although I was hoping, if at the outside chance of being selected, of having another shot at editing the darn thing! ;) ) I'm certainly looking forward to the challenge of making some meaningful contributions.
