This is both my personal learning project and my contribution in the struggle to confront the ongoing Republican/ libertarian assault on rational science and constructive learning, as manifested in their malicious strategic Attacks on Science ~ A collection of articles, scientific resources, plus my own essays and indepth critique of various presentations from unidirectional-skeptics ~ Hopefully a resource for the busy, yet discerning, student who's concerned about the health of our Earth

ScottishSceptic allow me to tell you about the tragedy of our time.
I received another email from the ScottishSceptic and since he's changed tact I'll use the opportunity to write a few words about the difference between the "skeptical of science" community's war-footing and the world of scientists with their commitment to constructive learning.
But first Scotty's email:

The Sceptic View (Rev. 0.5) by ScottishSceptic - examined by CC
{edited for grammatical errors and to add a couple more links. Thursday am}
This post will be reviewing
ScottishSceptic's
"The Sceptic View (Rev. 0.5)"

"The Sceptic View (Rev. 0.5)"
Which is a statement prepared by Mike Haseler with the help of… {update - ScottishSceptic tells me that Anthony Watts and Bishop Hill were not directly involved in producing his list. As for Morano, that was just a wild suspicion (can we examine SS's emails to be sure?). In any event, I stand corrected… at least til superseding information becomes available. Sort of like how science works ;-) }.
They say it "represents the most authoritative statement of the views of Climate "Sceptics"/"Skeptics" as of May 2012."

{update - It appears Mr. ScottishSceptic has taken umbrage at this review of his "copyrighted" list - he thinks it's sacred and shouldn't be questioned or exposed for the fraud that it is.
As Steven told Yoko, Sosumi ;- }
As such it should make an informative read. But before ScottishSceptic gets to the list itself he does something strange. Not sure if it's intended to prime his uncritical audience or be a red flag for rational skeptics.
