		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to those who advised me of this amazing email from the Climategate 2 collection, either through comments here or private email. It concerns the pre-1930 cooling of the New Zealand temperature record, and makes food for thought, especially for those supporting NIWA, Salinger and the increasingly shaky AGW story. Although it&#8217;s more of a [...]]]></description>

One of the best-known episodes in The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes is &#8220;Silver Blaze&#8221;, concerning “the curious incident of the dog in the night-time”. Curiously, the dog did nothing.
