A new paper by lead author Dr. Nigel Fox of the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) of the U.K.�s National Measurement Institution (synopsis available at eurekalert.org) warns all existing space data used in computer models to calculate the future impact of climate change are highly unreliable.In a paper published in Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society, Fox, head of Earth observation and climate at NPL, notes: �Nowhere are we measuring with uncertainties anywhere close to what we need to understand climate change and allow us to constrain and test the models. Our current best measurement capabilities would require more than 30 years before we have any possibility of identifying which model matches observations and is most likely to be correct in its forecast of consequential potentially devastating impacts. The uncertainties needed to reduce this are more challenging than anything else we have to deal with in any other industrial application, by close to an order of magnitude. It is the duty of the scientific community to reduce this unacceptably large uncertainty, by finding and delivering the necessary information, with the highest possible confidence, in the shortest possible time.�
You probably won't read about this uncertainty in the New York Times-- and I wouldn't look for an admission in one of Al Gore's speeches, either.
With "green" energy threatening to be a bust (e.g., Solyndra), one hasd to wonder how many people need to be put out of work before we realize we will be depednent on fossil fuels for a long, long time.
Glad you found some value in my tutorial just to note your sotloiun with HTTrack may not be for everyone, because although it does create a mirrored / cloned local copy of your site, which you could then upload to any host you choose, it doesn't integrate with WordPress (at least to my limited knowledge of the tool, although I haven't tested it myself.)So if getting your site (or any static web site) off of SquareSpace to move to another host is the game plan, then it will do a wonderful job and likely much faster and with less work than I described above. However, I was under the assumption that you were looking to move your site into a self hosted WP blog. If I'm wrong, please enlighten me.

Now a days global warming alarmed our senses. For it can be a big threat to our lives and also for our environment.
