This Jim Hansen item Not found in the Roanoke Times (unlike most of Hansen's alarmist proclamations).

Jim Hansen, the NASA employee who receives $180,000 per year plus complete federal benefits, is accused of receiving $1.2 MILLION in “gifts and gratuities” from the friends and associates and beneficiaries of the Gore-AGW-“Mann”-Caused global warming alarmist community without approval or disclosure or oversight as required by law.
These are the very same people who claim AGW-skeptics are being bought by industry and special interests. These alarmists are now refusing to comply with FOI requests and even subpoenas by the Virginia AG and associated court orders.

A cloak of secrecy is the implementation of a cloak of imposed ignorance.

“The NASA scientist who once claimed the Bush administration tried to "silence" his global warming claims is now accused of receiving more than $1.2 million from the very environmental organizations whose agenda he advocated.
In a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Washington, D.C., a group claims NASA is withholding documents that show James Hansen failed to comply with ethics rules and financial disclosures regarding substantial compensation he earned outside his $180,000 taxpayer-paid position as director of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies.”
“Federal rules prohibit government employees from receiving certain types of income outside their job. Employees are required to file Form 17-60 in writing before any outside activity. And annually, they're required to submit Form SF 278, after receiving outside compensation.
The American Tradition Institute filed a Freedom of Information Act request for those two documents for Hansen. The lawsuit claims NASA has "repeatedly and unlawfully refused to produce the requested materials."

Some of Jim Hansen’s unacceptable behaviors and activities were the focus of a 2009 blog item:

These behaviors are part and parcel of the ongoing Global-warming-alarmists cover-up of their activities that are primarily funded through taxpayer grants that have NO transparency or accountability but are held-up to be THE scientific truths upon which the world should enact draconian changes in energy systems. They are aided and abetted by liberal politicians and an intellectually dysfunctional liberal media.
