Ah, yes, the world-famous Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine.
Here are some more "facts".
From page 1 of Google: -
http://www.prwatch.org/improp/oism.html
"Oregon Institute of Science and Medicine
Headed by Arthur Robinson, an eccentric scientist who has a long history of
controversial entanglements with figures on the fringe of accepted research,
OISM describes itself as "a small research institute" that studies
"biochemistry, diagnostic medicine, nutrition, preventive medicine and the
molecular biology of aging." It also markets a home-schooling kit for
"parents concerned about socialism in the public schools" and publishes
books on how to survive nuclear war.
The OISM is located on a farm about 7 miles from the town of Cave Junction,
Oregon (population 1,126). "
"...The Oregon Petition, sponsored by the OISM, was circulated in April 1998
..."
First with the news again..
"..."The mailing is clearly designed to be deceptive by giving people the
impression that the article, which is full of half-truths, is a reprint and
has passed peer review," complained Raymond Pierrehumbert, an atmospheric
chemist at the University of Chicago. NAS foreign secretary F. Sherwood
Rowland, an atmospheric chemist, said researchers "are wondering if someone
is trying to hoodwink them." NAS council member Ralph J. Cicerone, dean of
the School of Physical Sciences at the University of California at Irvine,
was particularly offended that Seitz described himself in the cover letter
as a "past president" of the NAS...."
Page 1 of Google, good heavens, surely you looked these people up?
There's lots more Global Warming denial out there, better-written,
better-funded
with more sophisticated deceit that's less easy to laugh at. Couldn't you
have
trotted that out?
