I've also let him know about the response we will be submitting to Eos, mike At 01:16 PM 6/6/2003 -0600, Tom Wigley wrote: Dear all, I am happy to send a personal email to Inhofe. OK?

Inhofe broke away from the agenda for a few minutes to lecture some White House guy on the importance of having sound science, yahyah, etc. As an example, he said, this new study about the medieval warming period casts a whole new light on the global warming issue.
