The measurements just have to be adjusted. One of the ClimateGate quotes has a prominent researcher hoping that we will have catastrophic global warming so that his models can be proven correct. John

That would change all sorts of > things. Exxon-Mobil's investment in denying global warming has a rather better chance of being the greatest economic blunder in human history. When they get sued for their part in submerging New York, London, Amsterdam and all the other global cities under the rising sea-level there will be much comment on the trifling investment required to produce sucn an enormous liability. -- Bill Sloman, Nijmegen
