People do not want this story in their face when they can wank over any number of stupid news items.

Seriously, it's pathetic how the left, DU, has ignored this topic in favor of petty things simply because
people are too lazy to learn about the basics of the science involved.

As a group we should keep these stories alive simply because the pols like Hillary Clinton have swept
this under the carpet. The Obama haters should be all over it! At least that would be constructive.
