Like a lot of Americans, Taylor Francis can trace his global warming conversion back to the day he walked into a movie theater and watched An Inconvenient Truth. Before he saw the documentary, Francis says, he knew climate change was a problem, but not something that could end civilization. "I was stunned," he says now.

...late last year, they already had a serious reputation to live up to.So how did Gibbons, Geoff Barrow, and Adrian Utley try to return to the heights they reached in 1994?

...Science deserve much of the credit. Retired meteorologist Len van Burgel's task was to provide wind data from that long-ago November to help trace where debris from the Kormoran, found drifting days after the battle, could have come from. With no ocean wind reports available from that time, van Burgel dug through archives and extrapolated from land weather charts, then used computers and satellite imagery to model 1941 conditions. When the three approaches yielded similar results, he says, "we thought we were on to a good thing." Drift specialists could then identify where the German ship was likely...
