The quotation from the New York Times ends, then I state that I, the blogger, know Hansen by reputation from much reading on the subject. If you read my reviews, you will see they focus on the science, not the personalities or the politics. You, on the other hand, seem to think that a personal attack changes the facts. The attempt to gag Hansen is apparently a result of his reporting that 2005 was the hottest year on record and suggesting that perhaps it is time to re-evaluate policies that are not addressing a concern that becomes more urgent every year.
