17. I disagree

What happens is that a scientist uses their own methods to produce results.

Peer review has to allow others to reproduce your results. There has to be enough "there" there so that they aren't starting from scratch (because if they are, that's their own publishable work).

Fortunately, the most accurate temperature record, GISS, does release all of its code and all of its raw data (and I have confirmed that their data comes directly from the NCDC). So we don't have any real squabble.

Oh I'm not squabbling about the scientific consensus... merely the conduct of a few of those scientists.
