Does this mean they're done denying the science, and are moving on to attacking the repercussions then? That's progress!
Climategate is what converted me from "leaning towards accepting human-caused global warming" to strongly agreeing it's true. If those emails were the best "smoking gun" evidence the skeptic/denier side could come up with, and they couldn't come up with any science-based arguments that even I (with some background in earth sciences, but not a climatologist) couldn't refute, then to me they didn't have much of a case.
