Recent news reports seems to confirm that suspected hackers have indeed hacked into the University of East Anglia Climate Research Center and published what some are claiming is a mushroom cloud of e-mail evidence that scientists are falsley manipulating data that overstate Anthropogenic (man-made) global warming.  While some are decrying collusion, East Anglia has jumped on the defensive and released a statement claiming that some e-mails are being taken out of context. Other advocates say it's nothing more than scientific e-mail conversations with the overwhelming body of evidence pointing to man-made global warming.

Here's a list of the most contentious quotes  published by the Telegraph that the skeptics are using

In addition, Climatologists are puzzled as to why average global temperatures have stopped rising over the last 10 years"  Even global warming supporter, Mojib Latif, a member of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is reported to have stated that ""that we may indeed be in a period of cooling worldwide temperatures that could last another 10-20 years."

With billions at stake, the battle rages on and each side jockeys for position, we wonder will this be one of the most significant hacks in history or just a whole lotta hot air?.

In the meantime, we'll just keep hoping that one day we'll see an accurate 10-day forecast.
