picking up this discussion from the remaining relevant thread... i want to keep a concise list (roughly chronological) -- for my own memory if nothing else. i also want to start adding some overview sources.

* subverting of science to political aims
- denial of global warming
- Cheney's closed-door energy policy (culture of secrecy)
- EPA post 9-11
