That Fake Heartland Memo
…is looking faker by the minute.
I think that Megan is being a little too optimistic here:
Unfortunately, I’d imagine that this is still a sizeable set of people, and it will be hard to identify the author. I suspect that it will be easier to do if the climate-bloggers–who may well know this person as a commenter or correspondent–get involved in trying to find out who muddied the story by perpetrating a fraud on their sites.
Certainly, if I were in their shoes, I’d want to expose this person, so that they could refocus on the legitimate documents, and put to rest doubts about their integrity in this matter. But I’m not going to hold my breath.

All these laws, in which it is almost impossible to get through a day without breaking one, and all this legal uncertainty is (as Ayn Rand and others have pointed out) a huge threat to liberty.
