One thing I would add to Nancy's account is that up here in Canada climate scientists have not typically been subject to the really over-the-line smearing and harassment from the political Right that seems routine down in the U.S....the jihad against Michael Mann, for example. Except, that is, for Mr. Weaver, who had his campus office BNE'd in advance of the Copenhagen conference on climate change back in 2009.

Dr. Weaver, I believe. Met him once. Good man.
I've changed that.
Who? I've never heard of this guy before in my life. I doubt most BC residents have either. All the power to him, I suppose.
But he's got a silly idea: running for the very dead and moribund BC Greens, while the BC NDP are poised to sweep the entire Victoria area, Nobel-recipient-be-damned.
His talents would be better suited working with the next BC provincial government, not the fourth party.
He's well known on the Island. Weaver has probably forgtten more about climate change than most people will ever know.
Volkov the fact you've never heard of Weaver speaks volumes of your ignorance but is otherwise irrelevant. Try not acting like such a puke.
