[Time for some fresh sand.  Perhaps someone will want to take a cut at Nevada City's new lights issue, or the maintenance of local river hiking trails, or some other more sociable topic.  Then again, maybe not. ;-) ]

    RussS 834pm – The litany of AGW hysteria screw-ups in data collection, editing, analysis, and prognostication are now endless. The report I am waiting for is the one that tells us what impact these discoveries of error are making on walking back the horrible public policies already in place, or even changing any future course in ‘fighting global warming’. Until then, the next report like this is like the last one – ho hum. Give us some good news.

    Don’t worry, Earl, we can always make lovely Gift Baskets, locally sourced of course, and sell them to each other.

    Or….we can take that fruit cakes out of the freezers that was gifted to us last Christmas and regift them to each other. This has been going on for decades to the point nobody really knows how old those fruitcakes really are. 10 years? 30 years?

    I am sorry there is not going to be any good news real soon, we are dealing with a religious cult, facts do not matter. Cults collapse when the followers just walk away. This is a long process, as Mother Nature continues to modify the climate, growing cooler and colder over the next two or three generations.
    Here is an economic result of the environmental wacko cult. Anthony reports this morning that Canada has pulls the plug on the U.S. Keystone Pipeline – Canada will send oil to Asia
    Approves Asia Supply Route, Ignores US Route. Breitbart reports Canada has just approved the Enbridge Northern Gateway Project – a major pipeline to ship Canadian oil to Asia. The Canadian oil will still be burnt – in Asia, instead of America.
    Cults do not deal in reality. The wackos thought that denying the Keystone access to the US market would keep the oil in the ground. There will not be any good news any time in the near term, until the cults supporters walk away.

    RussS 742am – And that too is not news and has been fully reported here and elsewhere. Since you more closely cover these climate change frauds as they become known, I would suggest that you add to each report a little commentary on the expected impact on public policy of the latest revelation of impropriety. That would remind all about the entrenched cult of the evil and the ignorant with which we are dealing when talking about AGW. Else these reports sound too hopeful that some breakthrough has been made in talking to the tin ears in government and the lamestream when nothing of the sort is to be expected.

    A Canadian commenter in the Watts Up With That pointed out that Canada has not cancelled the XL Pipeline, they are just expanding the number of pipelines. According to another report, the current production exceeds the capacity of the XL pipeline, thus Canada needs another outlet regardless of Obama’s action to delay.
    As I noted in my post in Sierra Foothill Commentary, that the political hacks will not change course, and their is too much slush money on the table from carbon taxes to accept any change in the facts.

    How is this for irony, from Lois’s bio.
    Lerner moved to the Federal Election Commission, serving as the Assistant General Counsel for Enforcement, and ultimately as the Acting General Counsel.[1]
    Lerner is a past president of the Council on Governmental Ethics Laws (COGEL)
    Oh boy. Moved to the IRS from the Federal Elections Commission. I feel all better now.
