Super Pathway Discovered In Southern Ocean
WaltonNews writes in to let us know that a major underwater current called the Tasman Outflow has been discovered by Australian scientists. It helps to regulate the Earth's climate by providing water flow between three oceans in the southern hemisphere. Relatedly, a senior climate scientist has called for the establishment of a Southern Hemisphere network of deep ocean moorings, to complement the network already established in the North Atlantic. The intent is to detect any change in ocean circulation that may adversely influence global climate.
"I'm a global warming skeptic, "

There are a few sacred cow opinions you slashdot idiots hold near and dear: space elevator, anti-M$, hatred of the Good President George Bush, and of course global warming. Spew on you twit.
