LA Times Features Climate Depot: Morano: ‘Muller will be remembered as a befuddled professor who has yet to figure out how to separate climate science from his media antics’
…
Climatologist Dr. Pielke Sr. on Watts’ ‘Game Changer New Paper’: ‘Muller’s conclusion regarding the robustness of the BEST analysis is refuted in the same day as his op-ed appeared’
…
Watts new study: ‘Half of the warming trend has gone. 92% of artificial rise was due to ‘erroneous adjustments of well sited stations’
…
Warmist David Appell: Where BEST Should Have Stopped: ‘Attributing climate is more like figuring out the structure of DNA than it is like figuring out the laws of quantum mechanics…’

UK Telegraph’s Delingpole: ‘In the spirit of magnanimity in total crushing victory I would urge readers not to crow too much about the devastating blow Watts’s findings will have’

Anthony Watts delivers devastating blow to Muller’s scientific claims: ‘New analysis demonstrates that reported 1979-2008 U.S. temp trends are spuriously doubled’

Warmists’ trash alleged ‘converted skeptic’ Muller as ‘absurdly naive…rubbish’ — ‘Way over simplistic & not at all convincing’ — Mann says Muller all about ‘self-aggrandizement’
Richard Muller’s email: [email protected]
Climate Depot Response: ‘Did your ‘statistical methods’ rule out the hundreds of factors that make up global temps? Did you rule out the Sun, volcanoes, tilt of Earth’s axis, water vapor, methane, clouds, ocean cycles, plate tectonics, albedo, atmospheric dust, Atmospheric circulation, cosmic rays, carbon soot, forests & land use, etc.? Climate change is governed by hundreds of factors, or variables, not just CO2, so please spare us your attempt at fingerprint modeling.’
Warmist William Connolley on Muller: Study is ‘purely a matter of pulling together a temperature record. They’ve done none of the attribution work you’d expect, in order to talk about attribution’ — Connolley: ‘And what they say…appears absurdly naive’
Analysis: Muller’s ‘Results Nothing New’: Warmist William Connolley finds new BEST results ‘rubbish’ (by which he means data analysis is nothing new, & the attribution claims not very scientific) — Stoat calls Muller a ‘prima donna,’ and quotes Ken Caldiera: ‘…I do not see the results of Muller et al as being scientifically important. However, their result may be politically important’
Flashback: Self-loathing Muller in 2003: ‘Scientists regard with disdain those who play their conclusions to the press’ — Muller: ‘In most fields of science, researchers who express the most self-doubt and who understate their conclusions are the ones that are most respected’
Muller hope’s his analysis ‘will help settle the scientific debate’ Roger Pielke Jr. responds: ‘I want what he’s smoking’

Former Muller Co-Author Dr. Judith Curry: The method used to attribute human emissions to the warming was ‘way over simplistic and not at all convincing in my opinion’

Muller in 2008: ‘The bottom line is that there is a consensus — the IPCC — and the president needs to know what the IPCC says’
