Ok, still not done.
The only scientist quoted in that press release is S. Fred Singer. Now Singer actually is a scientist, so now we're getting somewhere. PhD in Physics, Princeton. Former Director, US National Weather Satellite Center. Former Professor of Environmental Sciences, Univeristy of Virginia (1971-94). Former Deputy Administrator EPA (1970-71). Impressive scientific resume. No problem. But where are his allegeances?

Do you see a connection? Apparently Singer didn't. He claimed he has had "no ties to oil for the past 20 years." This even though Singer's current CV on the SEPP website states that he served as a consultant to several oil companies.
My challenge stands.
