Gag order on the EPA

As such, I can't stand the cabal who some term "The Hockey Team" (a pejorative reference to the now famous or infamous "Hockey Stick" depicting a seeming step function in warming but later determined to be mostly due to the use of "tremometers" that are actually better hygrometers). James Hanson, Michael Mann, et al ... a bunch of jokes.

Nonetheless, I am not in favor of the extreme turn being taken by the Trump crew.

W would not have approved.

There is a middle path here people.

The gag order is not an extreme turn.

Climate models - as opposed to empirical research on historical climate behavior - continue to show hockey sticks starting at whatever the current year is, and continue to be shown to be wrong the next year.

A temporary gag order on an organization which is infamous for funding and publicizing such models is justified while cleaning house.

Now, Trump may indeed take an extreme turn by eliminating any research on the topic and ignoring carbon emissions in all his policies, not that Obama's policies were much better in that respect.  If so, though, that turn remains in the future; this isn't it.
