8.15 PM UPDATE: The Hadley CRU director admits the emails seem to be genuine:
The director of Britain’s leading Climate Research Unit, Phil Jones,
has told Investigate magazine’s TGIF Edition tonight ..."It was a
hacker. We were aware of this about three or four days ago that someone
had hacked into our system and taken and copied loads of data files and
emails."…
TGIF asked Jones about the controversial email discussing “hiding the decline”, and Jones explained what he was trying to say….
So the 1079 emails and 72 documents seem indeed evidence of a scandal involving most of the most prominent scientists
pushing the man-made warming theory - a scandal that is one of the
greatest in modern science. I’ve been adding some of the most
astonishing in updates below - emails suggesting conspiracy, collusion
in exaggerating warming data, possibly illegal destruction of
embarrassing information, organised resistance to disclosure,
manipulation of data, private admissions of flaws in their public
claims and much more. If it is as it now seems, never again will “peer
review” be used to shout down sceptics.
This is clearly not the work of some hacker, but of an insider who’s now blown the whistle.

UPDATE: Response from CRU in interview with another website, see end of this post.
The details on this are still sketchy, we’ll probably never know
what went on. But it appears that University of East Anglia Climate
Research Unit has been hacked and many many files have been released by
the hacker or person unknown.
