The assessment is gone over line-by-line by politicos, and if they don't like what they read, they change it, about 25 in total. Because some of the scientists have been involved somewhere down the line, their name is included. Many have tried in vain to get their name taken from the list.

Anyway, the IPCC's outcomes are based on flawed computer models that do not match real data. Nowhere in the models did they predict the cooling of the last six years. They do not even use the sun (solar irradiance and eruptivity) as an input variable for the models, nor clouds. Models cannot predict climate (at the moment), they can hardly predict weather.

There is also massive errors in the temp data collecting - most of the soviet cold data was lost and the UHIE is not taken into consideration.

When we have the next 10 years of cooling, you will not hear of this any more.

Some interesting reading, but a little long winded.. http://mclean.ch/climate/IPCC.htm

Anyway, I need to open a bottle of red.
