Hat Tip Sir Oolius...

Well I for one am just tickled pink that my snark from the other day has now become a conservative talkingpoint.

NY Sun:

AEI, described as a "lobby group," was said to be offering $10,000 — plus, wait for it, travel expenses — to scientists and economists for essays that showed the "limitations of global climate models." ...

Never mind that scientists on both sides of the issue take "cash" to study global warming.

$10,000? Feh! Petty cash.
