* * * If you write something, as I have done with Chill, which is a rational, critical appraisal of
the whole situation, you would at least expect to have some dialogue. But there has been nothing. I
haven't had a single invitation to speak to any of these groups. Even universities have been
reticent. I have been invited to speak at Leeds University, which has quite a strong climate
community, and the Energy Institute. But the environmental community has been absolutely silent
towards me. I would challenge them to bring all of their experts to the table and hammer it out.

* * * We're seeing the dangerous development here of a very intolerant political ideology. It is a
very strange political and scientific situation, in which vast sums of money are underwriting a
bureaucracy of climate accountants and auditors, and in which academic funding is easier to obtain
if you put man-made climate change at the top of your research proposal. I have never seen anything
like it in the 40 years of my scientific and environmental career.

It was established some time ago that the thing AGW advocates fear
most is conceptual clarity.
