SubjectRe: nomination: materials needed!
thanks much Phil,

that sounds good. So why don't we wait until next round (June '10) on this then. That will
give everyone an opportunity to get their ducks in a row. Plus I'll have one more Nature
and one more Science paper on my resume by then (more about that soon!). I'll be sure to
send you a reminder sometime next may or so!

Thanks for sending that paper. It takes some work to get a paper rejected by IJC. Want to
take a bet that some version of this appears in "Energy and Environment"? Of course, any
paper that appears there is not taken seriously anyway, its almost a joke.

The contrarians attacks certainly have not abated. The only hope is that they'll
increasingly be ignored.

talk to you later,

mike

Mike,
Have gotten replies - the're both happy to write supporting letters,
but both are too busy to take it on this year. One suggested waiting till
next year. Malcolm is supporting one other person this year. I'd be
happy to do it next year, so I can pace it over a longer period. Malcom
also said that Singer had an AGU Fellowship!!
Apart from my meetings I have skeptics on my back - still, can't
seem to get rid of them. Also the new UK climate scenarios are giving
govt ministers the jitters as they don't want to appear stupid when they
introduce them (late June?).
Talking of skeptics - the attached was rejected by IJC. He put it up on
something xarchiv. Easy to see why it was rejected. Parts appear quite
well written, but they always go too far. Obviously have no idea how to write
a paper.
Cheers
Phil

Mike,
I'll email Ray and Malcolm. I'd be happy to contribute. Away all next week
and another couple of weeks in June.
EGU will be in Vienna again. It is set for May 2-7, 2010.
It will also be Vienna in 2011.
Cheers
Phil

Hey Phil,
I hope all is well w/ you these days. Been a while since I've actually seen you. Perhaps
can convince you to make it to EGU next year? Looks like it will be in Vienna again. I
rather enjoyed this one, and I think I may go back next year.
On a completely unrelated note, I was wondering if you, perhaps in tandem w/ some of the
other usual suspects, might be interested in returning the favor this year ;)
I've looked over the current list of AGU fellows, and it seems to me that there are
quite a few who have gotten in (e.g. Kurt Cuffey, Amy Clement, and many others) who
aren't as far along as me in their careers, so I think I ought to be a strong candidate.
anyway, I don't want to pressure you in any way, but if you think you'd be willing to
help organize,I would naturally be much obliged. Perhaps you could convince Ray or
Malcolm to take the lead? The deadline looks as if it is again July 1 this year.
looking forward to catching up w/ you sometime soon, probably at some exotic location of
Henry's choosing ;)
