>Things are very interesting in 'Super' Hockey Stick Land. The mystery of the change between thesis and publication is getting clearer and the fact that it appears to be "shoddy" dating practices certainly raises questions not just of intent but of how in the world did this get past the almighty "peer-review"?

Hoffman? Who is that?

1988?

I think maybe I should challenge your climate change denial posts more often ;-)
