<sentencetext>You can mod the parent (and me, for that matter) down, but the fact is that the "Climategate" models are indeed broken, because they have failed to accurately predict the weather in the last eight years.
By definition, if a model fails to predict observed behavior, it is the model that is wrong, not the observation.The fact that both the parent and I felt the need to post this anonymously is itself indicative of the level of behavior seen in this "debate" - the "warmists" refuse to listen to any criticism (regardless of validity), going so far as to attempt to change the past to support their contention.
(Consider the "disappearance" of the Roman Warm Period from Wikipedia, despite ample evidence from various sources including ice cores, and the denial and subsequent rediscovery of the Medieval Warm Period as two such examples.

	<htmltext>Without the full text of the "Pigeons" article, I don't know what their experimental methods were, but it could be that they rewarded the pigeons for choosing drawings that the researchers themselves classified as "good" based on some consistent criteria that the pigeons were able to follow.

Silly as the article's title might sound, it turns out that pigeons are remarkably good at "reading" photographs and drawings.  Something we might keep in mind when we dismiss these creatures as "dumb animals" (I'm referring here to pigeons, not scientists).  Here's an example:
