date: Fri, 17 Mar 2000 17:11:20 +0000 from: Trevor Davies subject: Research Director for TC to: m.hulme@uea Mike, Be aware that Tickell dislikes Tom Wigley; this isn't hearsay - I know this for a fact. After Tom published that "delaying -emissions cutbacks - scenario" analysis in Nature, Tickell told me that Tom was irresponsible, & had damaged the likelihood of the cc issue being addressed seriously. There is also the baggage about Tickell pinching some of CRU's ideas & Tom telling him so rather unsubtly. So - he needs to be the "sort of top research scientist we know is interested".
