By Paul Yeager, author of Weather Whys: Facts, Myths, and Oddities

Michael Mann, a paleoclimatologist at Penn State and the man most directly associated with the so-called Climategate scandal was completely exonerated of any wrong-doing, according to a report issued by Penn State last month.

The decision of the investigatory committe was unanimous.

From the report:

The Investigatory Committee, after careful review of all available evidence, determined that there is no substance to the allegation against Dr. Michael E. Mann, Professor, Department of Meteorology, The Pennsylvania State University. More specifically, the Investigatory Committee determined that Dr. Michael E. Mann did not engage in, nor did he participate in, directly or indirectly, any actions that seriously deviated from accepted practices within the academic community for proposing, conducting, or reporting research, or other scholarly activities.
