Hi everybody,

just a quick update that I got word from the Chief Editor of GRL (Jay 
Famiglietti) that our comment in GRL about the MM paper earlier this 
year has finally been accepted. They are now soliciting a response from 
McIntyre and McKitrick, but that should now move rather quickly. No 
official word on the Climatic Change paper just yet.

Cheers,
Caspar
