It appears that Climate Audit after posting on a NASA error that made 1998 the warmest year on record (it is now second warmest after 1934, Power and Control link) has been hit with a denial of service attack according to a commenter at Watts Up With That?
Evidently the news was too much for some people to bear.
Michelle Malkin sent an e-mail. She thinks it was a mention of Climate Audit by Rush L. that did it. Possible. Steve McIntyre has posted at A. Watts' site saying it may be a while before CA returns. Maybe a week. The usual DOS type attack is cleared in a couple of days or less. So I'm still wondering. More news as it becomes available. Michelle has more details on the main story and some thoughts on why Climate Audit is Down.

And all along I thought the instalanche did them in. I should have known--we can't have facts getting in the way of the global warming steamroller, now can we?
As everyone knows, global warming is far too important for normal standards of proof. We must take the most extreme measures not because it is right, but because it might be right.

... aaand it's back down.
Mr. McIntyre says it may be down for a long as week. Presumably that's how long it will take to get the server upgraded.
