In looking through the emails and data that were hacked concerning Climate Change, which you can download in its entirety here, there are a number of interesting things stashed away in the 62 MB file.
The email below was dated November 10, 2009, so it is not yet a month old. I highlighted the email headers in bold, and also included a section in bold that has Phil Jones, who is now the former head of the unit asking “Could the Weather Generator be altered to produce more realistic hourly data”.
Wow! I assume the Weather Generator is the computer modeling software that comes up with the nice hockey stick graphs.

Colin,
I thought that this didn’t happen.
Cheers

Hi Chris,
Another Weather Generator query for you. It was raised by Richard Watkins of Manchester
University (and COPSE project) following a visit from Roger yesterday.Can you let me know your response please?
Cheers,
LyndseyLong Description=The hourly data from the Weather
Generator have discontinuities at each
midnight join. The e.g. temperature
jumps, may be as high as 9�C. The
hourly data seem to have been generated
independently for each day, rather than
fitting a curve from the maximum of one
day to the minimum of the next. The
minimum to maximum curve, i.e. within
each day, is fine.
Could the Weather Generator be altered
to produce more realistic hourly data
by fitting from Tmax to Tmin the
following day, please? This would be
helpful particularly for any use of the
data for building simulation with plant
controls.
Thanks,
Richard Watkins

This is why I really dislike the term “Global Warming”. I’m sorry, but we have bigger concerns than “warming” on a global scale. What we need to be looking at is temperature in the Arctic, not globally, because THAT’S what I’m worried about. We need to be looking at the desalination of Ocean Currents generated by increases in fresh water from the heating in the Arctic. Man-made or not, we know that desalination of Ocean Currents is a Criterion for an ice-age (No, I’m actually not over reacting).
Essentially, flooding the ocean with fresh water takes away from the salt-water concentration, which can actually shut off Ocean Currents such as the Gulf Stream. Shutting those off essentially blocks the water ways heating the Earth (ever wondered why the Gulf of Mexico has the warm water to charge up a Hurricane?).
But no, THAT doesn’t fit on a little sign that is prone to hypocrisy (case in point: that picture up top).
