Today's Washington Post has a very interesting, and 
troubling, article about the changes made in the 
Smithsonian's NMNH's Arctic exhibit to suggest "scientific 
uncertainty" about climate change, allegedly "to avoid 
criticism from congressional appropriators and 
global-warming skeptics in the Bush administration".  NMNH 
Director Cristián Samper denies the scientists' 
allegations.
