Climate Jousters & Jesters

Judith Curry is at it again. This time she's mixing it up with the denizens of Climate Audit, including its host. She's been active in some of the recent CA threads, jousting with McIntyre, but this duel on climate data is notable. I will say this: she's treated more politely over there by folks who disagree with her, than she has been at my site. Still, it appears that CA readers and McIntyre cut Judith no less slack than those on the other side of the climate spectrum, who have gotten into it with her on my blog. (This kinda makes me wonder about the entrenched mindsets of both sides, given that neither seems particularly open to persuasion by Judith.) That said, the bloggy climate skeptic universe is not the monochromatic echo chamber that the Romms and Deltoids would have you believe. For example, here's Lucia teeing off on Monckton in delightfully sardonic fashion.
