Here’s an interesting post by Roger Pielke, Jr., author of the book The Climate Fix, on how Michael Mann, Paul Ehrlich, and Stefan Rahmstorf — the Climategate stars — trashed journalist Daniel Greenberg for having the audacity to give The Climate Fix a positive review in Nature magazine.

Do read the entire post, but here’s a copy of the quite amusing e-mail Greenberg sent to the axis-of-alarmism in response to their critique of the review:

Dear Professors Mann, Ehrlich, and Rahmstorf,
Your correspondence concerning my review of Roger Pielke’s book “Climate Fix” has provided me with a deeper understanding of the widespread public skepticism toward climate science. In your hands, apple pie and motherhood would come under public suspicion. Have you considered taking a remedial reading course? Can you comprehend the difference between a book reviewer’s own beliefs and the reviewer’s presentation of the beliefs expressed by the author of the book under review? Apparently not. Furthermore, your insinuation of an undisclosed relationship between me and a conservative think tank is preposterous. In 2006, I participated in a panel discussion sponsored by the Marshall Institute—as I have done with numerous other organizations, including the Brookings Institution, RAND, AAAS, and various academic societies and universities. Common practice for journalists. Nor did I, as you allege, write a report, or anything, for the Marshall Institute. The panel’s words were transcribed and published by the Institute. I wrote nothing for them. You guys are the devil’s gift to the Tea Party and other climate-change wackos.
Sincerely, Dan Greenberg
