I thought of you the other day as I was watching an interview on TV of someone talking about Discover Magazine's Top Ten Science Discoveries. Actually, "watching" is not the right word. I sometimes have the TV on while I'm on the computer and every once in a while something from the TV seeps through and I look up. Which is why I don't know who the guy being interviewed was.

What he said that got my attention was that 2004 was the year in which scientists finally quit debating whether or not there is global warming and started debating instead what to do about it. Unfortunately, that was all he said about it and I haven't been able to track down a more complete opinion. Maybe something will show up in the next edition of Discover along with the Top Ten. In any case, I thought you'd be interested to know that that had happened. <g>

FWIW, discover.com has a place where you can vote on the top ten among their list of 100 discoveries. I found the list interesting.
