Default Hurricanes NOT necessarily going to get more frequent ...

.... Interesting new bit of research.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7404846.stm

I haven't looked at the source research, but one quote in this BBC
report is something that pleases me (and I speak as a card-carrying
AGW believer):-

"This implies that we cannot simply extrapolate the past 25 years into
the future."

Although I *do* believe we are affecting the global climate in all
sorts of ways, I cannot accept the rather simplistic 'straight-line'
presentations that are bandied about as to the future climate. The
'system' simply doesn't work that way. There are all sorts of
surprises in store over the coming decades.

Martin.
