   Between you and I , I believe there may be problems with the analysis of the Bristlecone
   data. We can talk by phone about this

     I'm going to send an email to Prof. North of the NAS panel to ask if he really meant
     "don't use bristlecones", as he is quoted by McIntyre.

     I talked with Bette Otto-Bliesner a few weeks ago. She was a Panel member and said that
     they
     had asked a tree-ring specialist and he had adviced not to use BCpines. Not a very deep
     argument.
     The report is available I think, but it is not final yet.
     Keith, what do you think about this?


     Does anyone know where I can get hold of the categorisation of the Sheep Mountain trees
     used by Graybill and Idso (ca534.rwl from the WDC for paleoclimatology I think) into
     "strip-bark" and "full-bark"? I've sent an email to the WDC query address.


     ask Graybill and/or Idso themselves?
