Revisable science
New discoveries of significant amounts of water (at least six-feet of water ice in each of forty craters) on what was long considered a bone-dry Luna show why today’s AGW to-do hardly can be considered “settled”:
“If you converted those craters’ water into rocket fuel, you’d have enough fuel to launch the equivalent of one space shuttle per day for more than 2000 years. But our observations are just a part of an even more tantalizing story about what’s going on up on the Moon.”

No, AGW is more about politics, which is on a perpetual seesaw.

Science in general is undergoing revision all the time, the GW story, however, seems more like a seesaw. It’s not like revision, rather like a random frog jumps. No offense to frogs, mind you.
