IPCC log jam breaks, another AR5 reviewer breaks ranks

(Before It's News)

From WUWT “… I asked a prominent climate scientist if I should release my review early in view of the release of the entire second draft report.

He suggested that I do so, and links to the official IPCC spreadsheet version and a Word version of my review are now posted near the top of my homepage at www.forrestmims.org.”

WUWT post here

Dare we hope for more logs?

I doubt it because

“Mims, 62, has no academic training in science but still has carved a career as a science author, lecturer and syndicated columnist. He has written instructional books on electronics and published papers and photographs in some 70 magazines and journals, including Nature, Science and Popular Mechanics. He is a writer and editor for the Society for Amateur Scientists.”

All that matters is being disruptive and doing. Crossing disciplines is I think (okay, I know) a key, bringing in different and fresh knowledge. Lively, fun.

I notice.

“UV-B Network
Forrest M. Mims III is the site operator of the USDA UV-B monitoring site at Texas Lutheran University, Seguin, Texas.”

And UVB is the nearest we can get here to solar TSI strangeness. Maybe it needs a look. I wonder what he knows?
