Groups concerned U.Va. will turn over documents in global warming case
By Anita KumarFour groups say they are worried the University of Virginia may unnecessarily disclose private correspondence from scientists in the case involving the work of former professor Michael Mann.
The state’s flagship university has fought requests to release documents under Virginia’s freedom of information laws to Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli (R), but the groups say they are now concerned about a May 24 agreement U.Va. made to provide some documents to the American Tradition Institute.Environmental Law Center.
The four groups — the Union of Concerned Scientists, the American Association of University Professors, the American Geophysical Union and Climate Science Watch — sent U.Va. a letter late Tuesday.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

With each passing day, these people remind me more and more of scientologists. Their sacred knowledge is a secret to be kept from the masses to avoid defections.
They need to brush up on current U.S. law. If the correspondence is on company owned equipment, there is no expectation of privacy. Try again.
The Union of Communist Scientists has “fought requests to release documents under Virginia’s freedom of information laws to Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli“.
The USA has attempted suicide by allowing subversive enemies of the republic to operate within its borders and exploit the laws therein to attack its very existence.
Enemies foreign and domestic.
That’s odd. None of these scientific groups were concerned before when the UoVA handed over another climate scientists records. I wonder why they were nowhere to be found in that case? It almost gives one the impression that politics has replaced science as the primary purpose of these scientific agencies. Hiding data and trying to prevent FOIA requests would be tactics associated more with a secret society, the Mafia or a shadow government agency rather than men of science.
Could it be that they have begun to act like a monopoly? Monopolies also try to prevent access to information that might reflect poorly on them. Could it be that while our society has been vigilant in preventing business monopolies from becoming too powerful we have turned a blind eye to abusive government monopolies? What level of abuse that could be reached if the monopoly was a worldwide organization?

Uniformly Criminal Scientologists?
The UCS has something of a history doing everything they can to steer folks away from the truth. I pointed out how they were involved in trying to spin Art Robinson’s petition of skeptic scientists out of existence back in 1998, see “Silencing global warming critics” http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2010/08/silencing_global_warming_criti.html
