Visitors to the Climatic Research Unit at the University of East
Anglia would find it minus a doorbell: it was removed to shield
scientists inside from the incessant ringing of journalists after the
release of e-mails from a server there one year ago escalated into a

Phil Jones, says that the media storm and personal attacks led him to
contemplate suicide.
