It's unfortunate that these articles never mention that there has been a very longstanding controversy over these ideas, and that the University of Washington today recognizes the other side of this debate as a very important line of investigation. See the research of Gerald Pollack. Readers should be alerted to the existence of controversies where they exist. The public has a right to know, in light of the observable politics which can be seen at play in the climate sciences. It's time to take a closer look at the controversies of ALL of the scientific domains, and this is a very important one.

Plasmasrevenge looks very much like the sockpuppet of HannesAlfven. Especially here http://phys.org/n...rth.html where we can see a post from HannesAlfven followed by a one word "test" post from plasmasrevenge. Probably Hannes has set up a second browser logged in to physorg/sciencex as the sockpuppet and was testing how easy it would be to switch back and forth.
