When I started the category Global Warning, one of the first posts was about James E. Hansen. Now it looks like they tried to silence him:
Climate Expert Says NASA Tried to Silence Him (29.1.2006)
The top climate scientist at NASA says the Bush administration has tried to stop him from speaking out since he gave a lecture last month calling for prompt reductions in emissions of greenhouse gases linked to global warming.In February, NASA seem to draft new rules. Let's wish that James E. Hansen continues to speak without loosing his job due to political reasons.
The scientist, James E. Hansen, longtime director of the agency's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, said in an interview that officials at NASA headquarters had ordered the public affairs staff to review his coming lectures, papers, postings on the Goddard Web site and requests for interviews from journalists.
Dr. Hansen said he would ignore the restrictions. "They feel their job is to be this censor of information going out to the public," he said.
NASA to Draft New Rules for Media Office (16.2.2006)
Although Boehlert and other House members mentioned NASA's public information difficulties in opening statements, they asked Griffin no questions about the accusations that arose in January when scientist James E. Hansen charged that the agency's press office was restricting his efforts to publicly discuss climate change.

Of couse they are trying to silence Dr. Hansen, the carbon fuel corporations have trillions of dollars worth of infrastructure to protect. I have given my solar furnace to mankind as it will reverse global warming, have you seen it? Of course you have not seen it because the carbon criminals do not want a hydrogen economy. I wish the good Dr. all the best, tell him to watch his back.
