what to do, what to do.

I really don't know that I should stay on at a place where the newly hired president of the org quotes Che Guevera.  More probably attributed a quote that lots of people said to Fidel Castro's executioner.  Nothing wrong with a revolutionary sentiment wrt to maybe we can get rid of some of the old costly weather information collection schemes the big gub'mint agencies use now and replace them with our comparatively tiny budget program.  But if you say "to quote Che"  then you must be in the idiot crowd that glorifies him rather than knowing enough actual facts to revile the man.

That is just a sympton.  Most of the place voted for Barry, thinking they were saving science from budget cuts and preserving freedoms.  They have no clue that they voted to burn the country down just to (and its only a maybe in our case) keep the government cash flowing more freely for a few more years.     One thing for the people to vote based on greed now and an 'oh someone will fix things before they break down and kill us in 10-20 years'.  But to think that voting for the SCOAMT was a rationale decision that benefited the country?   I just don't know how people can really have that kind of blinders on, and some of these people are smarter than me wrt to understanding complex science.

They also have no clue that 100s of billions of dollars in government grants written first based on "OMG we might be going to burn up the planet we have to study this" and then drifting into responding to solicitations to "study how catastrophic will global warming be" and etc.  is not orders of magnitude bigger wrt to expectation bias etc than the paltry bit of money some skeptics take from "BIG OIL"  

It is very hard to leave a healthy paycheck with flexible hours but I don't want to feel like I'm selling out every damn week just for a job when I honestly believe these idiots voted to send the country into a deep recession and are scaring themselves with bullshit wrt to Global Warming.    CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but there is no good reason to think that there is a consistent factor of 3-5 multiplication effect from the bit of CO2 warming evaporating more water from the oceans.   Water  has three phases and only the vapor form is a green house gas.   They have no idea whether we will get albedo effects that halve the CO2 warming at times due to cloud formations.  No one knows cloud physics that well.
