The nation's leading hurricane experts predicted a vicious 2006 storm season would spin more than a dozen strong storms out of the Atlantic Ocean, but a milder forecast from a lesser-known team in North Carolina is proving more accurate.

"Almost everyone was predicting another extremely active year — all the big names were saying the same thing," said Lian Xie, a professor of marine earth and atmospheric sciences at North Carolina State University. "We were taking a chance, a risk. If we were wrong, everybody would be laughing at me."
Just as I suspected, almost all the 'scientists' got it wrong. Thanks for proving my point.
