At last some justice for one of the world’s top minds, for the suffering he’s had to go through for telling the truth…all because some knuckle-dragging morons think they know more than he does when, in fact, they know zip. Prof. Mann successfully sued Canada’s most notorious climate-denier, the late Tim Ball, in a similar case some years ago, too. The ultra-Conservative “think-tank,” the Winnipeg-based “Frontier Centre” venerates Ball as “Canada’s foremost climate skeptic.” Reactionary rags such as this (and the Epoch Times - remember it?) are still alive and well in or midst. We need to either remain vigilant or be afraid. Very afraid.
