If Global Warming was such an open and closed case why in the hell would scientific data need to be manipulated at all and not just reported. The answer of course is it's not.

Unfortunately, it is apparent that some quite unfamiliar with science (the press, some politicians) are making rather huge and false leaps of assumption.
For example, thinking that the couple of things talked about in this e-mail, by a few people, somehow magically discredits a huge, whole body of decades of other scientific work.
One would think that the most accurate judges of the importance of the content of the leaked e-mails would be the rest of the vast scientific community within this field, whom it would affect (they are certainly talking about it.)
Rather than taking the opinion of some elderly US Senators and a talk-show host or two.
