" Less sunlight reaching the Earth's surface has not translated into cooler temperatures, according to a team of solar physicists at New Jersey Institute of Technology. The scientists, who monitor the Earth's reflectance by measuring what is known as the moon's earthshine, have observed that the amount of light reflected by Earth -- its albedo -- has increased since 2000. The result has been less sunlight reaching the Earth's surface."

this is all very intense, they are saying that the warmest year of the century was 1998, but from the help of El Nino. But whats significant is that this past year (2005) has returned to the same temp without the help of El Nino.
