Everything happens for a reason.

Gormogon operatve MC—and quite frankly, if this guy keeps this excellent work up, he’s going to be in charge of a whole conspiracy division here at the Castle—sent the Czar an urgent message last night that shows a level of weather control possibly beyond the Mandarin’s current abilities.

What happened? Someone “hacked” into the Hadley Climate Research Unit (the forefront for pro-global warming research) and swiped 61 megabytes of inside information, ranging from the raw data that was allegedly purged and therefore unavailable for scrutiny to emails that involved active coverup of contradictory data.

This is without doubt, if the material is genuine, the biggest smoking gun found so far against global climate change, and it’s a doozy of a caliber. Most frauds use a word processor to fake a typewritten memo with smart quotes; they do not produce 61MB of raw data and emails written by a variety of people.

Information purported to be stolen from a leading research institute strongly suggests global climate change to be a politically driven hoax. And so we say “hacked” in quotes because MC quite reasonably proposed that this was an inside job given the suspiciously targeted nature of the information. We of course know it was likely one of MC’s wicked henchmen who did the deed; further, MC ensured that the news got to the press, who have refused to reveal how potentially devastating this is to the world-is-melting folks.

So unless they prove that the stolen data are a hoax, we conclude the real possibility that most of the evidence behind global warming (which came from the Hadley CRU) is indeed the hoax.

Borepatch is already all over this and has a nice initial response to what this suggests. So far, no one has refuted the data as a hoax; further, there is the possibility that some misguided cretin released the information hoping it would convince people of global warming. Borepatch is already en route to our Castle in his specially equipped Gulfstream for top level secret meetings with us (actually, we’re only planning to shoot guns out the third floor windows, but the subject of climate change is likely to come up somewhere during reloading).

The Czar of Muscovy

Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
