"So why are some scientists now beginning to question the buoys'
findings? Because in five years the little blighters have failed to
detect any global warming. They are not reinforcing the scientific
orthodoxy of the day, namely that man is causing the planet to warm
dangerously. They are not proving the predetermined conclusions of their
human masters. Therefore they, and not their masters' hypotheses, must
be wrong."

Read a little further - the "cooling effect" is actually a sign of
"global warming".

Typical.

"Some scientists?" Geeze, you think he could have named at least one.

Besides temperatures, those buoys are redefining what we know about
currents. It had been thought that as the Gulf Stream moved water north
on the surface, the Labrador current, flowing deeper, was moving water
south to replace it. Apparently, those buoys show the current doesn't go
where it was expected. It either travels deeper than the buoys, or the
current dissipates somewhere south of the Flemish Cap.

Interesting science, beats the hell out of the Nike container.
