  Tom Collins' World Wide Web Log — Authority: 110
  Around eleven this morning, Gretchen let me know that my nephew, Henry Palikowski, Junior, wished to arrange for a telephone consultation today whenever I had the free time in my schedule.  I certainly had no problem with that - because while Congress sometimes stages a circus this time of year, as it is doing at the ...

• Those “climategate” emails

  
  Open Parachute — Authority: 510
  The current “scandal” erupting around the hacking of servers at the University of East Anglias’ Climate Research Centre is rather predictable.
