date: Fri Aug 13 13:38:32 2004 from: Phil Jones subject: Re: Fwd: RE: IJOC040512 review to: "Michael E. Mann" Mike, I'd rather you didn't. I think it should be sufficient to forward the para from Andrew Conrie's email that says the paper has been rejected by all 3 reviewers. You can say that the paper was an extended and updated version of that which appeared in CR. Obviously, under no circumstances should any of this get back to Pielke.
