As an Earth Scientist in Pennsylvania, I was peripherally involved in the 2005 Katzmaier v Dover School District action and, as a result, followed P.Z. Myers’ web site for a while. I had to give it up though once that furor was over and he began ranting about climate science. I have not followed his site since because his arguments on both evolution and climate were founded on the authority of the scientists – not on the sciences.

Climate science and evolution are "founded on the authority of the scientists - not on the sciences"!  What science are the scientists hiding, pray tell :)

That dumb comment wasn't the only thing that spoilt what might have been a rare reasonable article at WUWT today. (Archived here.)  Anthony used his article to take a swipe at Michael Mann, basically saying he should lie down and take public accusations of fraud by journalists, without challenging them.


PS Kitzmiller v. Dover Area School District happened in the 21st Century, would you believe.  I wouldn't have believed it myself had I not read it in Wikipedia :(
