I'd love to know where this rumor got started.

As you wish...... Steve McIntyre strikes again exposing man-causes-global-warming frauds.....
'Steve McIntyre, of Toronto operates
www.climateaudit.org and began to investigate the data and the methods used to arrive at the results that were graphed by NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS).
What he discovered was truly amazing. Since NASA does not fully publish the computer source code and formulae used to calculate the trends in the graph, nor the correction used to arrive at the "corrected" data. He had to reverse engineer the process by comparing the raw data and the processed data..'

NASA is doing a 'Michael Mann'. In other words, don't release all your algoythms to make it harder for others to expose your work as fraudulent.... If man caused global warming is such a slam-dunk, then why can't these people act like REAL scientists and include FULL methodology sections in their research so their conclusions can be independently verified? Geez....if I turned in a biological lab report with an incomplete methodology section I would have gotten a 'B' instead of my normal 'A'. REAL SCIENTISTS follow the scientific method and include FULL methodology sections with their research.
