Hello Peck, Eystein, Tim, Keith:

Please find attached the e-versions of the WA and AW papers re: the
"hockey-stick".  These are now available as "to-come-in-print" articles
from Climatic Change.  I believe the WA one was just loaded yesterday.
As I understand it, official "print" publication will be this November.
These versions HAVE gone through the author proof process, and thus I
anticipate no possibility of them being further changed before print
publication.

Note brief correspondence yesterday with Phil Jones re: proof-level
changes that were made to WA (copied below).

Peace, Gene

Hi Phil:

There were inevitably a few things that needed to be changed in the
final version of the WA paper, such as the reference to the GRL paper
that was not published (replaced by the AW paper here), two or three
additional pointers to the AW paper, changed references of a
Mann/Rutherford/Wahl/Ammann paper from 2005 to 2007, and a some other
very minor grammatical/structural things.  I tried to keep all of this
to the barest minimum possible, while still providing a good reference
structure.  I imagine that MM will make the biggest issue about the very
existence of the AW paper, and then the referencing of it in WA; but
that was simply something we could not do without, and indeed AW does a
good job of contextualizing the whole matter.

Steve Schneider seemed well satisfied with the entire matter, including
its intellectual defensibility (sp?) and I think his confidence is
warranted.  That said, any other thoughts/musings you have are quite
welcome.

Peace, Gene

  Gene/Caspar,
     Good to see these two out. Wahl/Ammann doesn't appear to be in CC's
  online first, but comes up if you search.
     You likely know that McIntyre will check this one to make sure it
hasn't
  changed since the IPCC close-off date July 2006!
     Hard copies of the WG1 report from CUP have arrived here today.

  Ammann/Wahl - try and change the Received date!  Don't give those
skeptics something
  to amuse themselves with.

  Cheers
  Phil
