It's worth reading McIntyre's post on the post-dating at STW.
So I've read McIntyre's post, and I'm struck by something.

In response to a paper discussing the tendency of climate science deniers to accept conspiracy theories, you've provided two "objections post that does NOT talk about methodology or accuracy, but instead focuses on the minutia of whether or not someone was deliberately changing the publishing date of a blog post, in order to make themselves look good.

The other is a paper co-authored by somebody that has openly stated that he believes climate change is a conspiracy to establish a one-world socialist government.

While neither of these things are more than anecdotal, this particular set of objections is not exactly convincing.

Do you see where I'm coming from here?
