Get ready for some global cooling

Great piece here from the National Post of Canada about the conclusion of a prominent climate scientist that we're in for 10 to 15 years of cooling before warming resumes. Interestingly, the article also notes that last year was one of the cooler years in over a decade. Check out the following paragraphs:

"Last year, for instance, saw a drop in the global average temperature of nearly 0.7 degrees C (the largest single-year movement up or down since global temperature averages have been calculated). Despite advanced predictions that 2007 would be the warmest year on record, made by such UN associates as Britain's Hadley Centre, a government climate research agency, 2007 was the coolest year since at least 1993.

According to the U. S. National Climatic Data Center, the average temperature of the global land surface in January 2008 was below the 20th-Century mean for the first time since 1982."

Has anyone told Al Gore this?
