THE SCIENCE IS SETTLED -- SO JUST SHUT UP!!


Hey, remember all the bullshit hoopla that global warming jackasses scientists were putting out about the rising sea levels?  Yes, remember how "the science it settled."  Well, it turns out that it's not actually settled so much as it is all fucked up.  Gee, who could have predicted this?

Scientists have been forced to withdraw a study on projected sea level rise due to global warming after finding mistakes that undermined the findings.

The paper – entitled "Constraints on future sea-level rise from past sea-level change" – used fossil coral data and temperature records derived from ice-core measurements to reconstruct how sea level has fluctuated with temperature since the peak of the last ice age, and to project how it would rise with warming over the next few decades.

In a statement the authors of the paper said: "Since publication of our paper we have become aware of two mistakes which impact the detailed estimation of future sea level rise. This means that we can no longer draw firm conclusions regarding 21st century sea level rise from this study without further work.

"One mistake was a miscalculation; the other was not to allow fully for temperature change over the past 2,000 years. Because of these issues we have retracted the paper and will now invest in the further work needed to correct these mistakes." More at The Guardian.co.uk

Ha ha, in one part of the article some doofus is confused.  He's not sure whether this means the sea level could actually rise even FARTHER and THAT'S why they had to retract their "paper."  Gee, yes, it's quite the mystery isn't it?  I guess it is ... you know ... if you're a complete idiot lib.
