Returning closer to topic, though still a bit offside,* there is a scheduled persecution by Rep. Lamar Smith's Space, Science and Technology Committee (House of Representatives)
https://science.house.gov/legislation/hearings/full-committee-hearing-climate-science-assumptions-policy-implications-andFull Committee Hearing- Climate Science: Assumptions, Policy Implications, and the Scientific Method
Date: Wednesday, March 29, 2017 - 10:00am
Dr. Judith Curry, President, Climate Forecast Applications Network; Professor Emeritus, Georgia Institute of Technology
Dr. John Christy, Professor and Director, Earth System Science Center, NSSTC, University of Alabama at Huntsville; State Climatologist, Alabama
Dr. Michael Mann, Professor, Department of Meteorology and Atmospheric Science, Pennsylvania State University
Dr. Roger Pielke Jr, Professor, Environmental Studies Department, University of Colorado
Politics dictates 3:1 Republican:Democrat choices. They hold all the cards for the foreseeable future, but this will be a show trial of sorts. My personal opinion, strictly off the cuff, is that Dr. Mann will be better than our friend Rush Holt (who got in the weeds being honest about science, though excellent) but not as good as Admiral Titley who is quietly authoritative.
(*If there's a better forum for this kind of thing (American politics re climate), please let me know.)
((Agreed on health care: what we need is a big fail. Meanwhile, the Russian scandal is building.))
