New Re: Sure there's Global Warming
Some of the ice was demonstrably laid down during the last Ice Age.

Next? :)

New Which means...
...there is a demonstrated pattern of global cooling too.

New No, It means what it means...
..that global warming is melting 10,000 yr old glaciers. There is NO REASON to assume any factitious cause when a clear and present one is before your nose!

"Factitious", isn't that the opposite of "fictitious"? :-)

Factitious is a word in itself - as in, "sham" - not quite the same as fictitious - invented.

New Re: 10 points CRC

I'd like to share a beer with you and Daryl (oohhh shit! - did it again)

Hey Danny, I need to get my brain scrubbed - there has to be something Freudian as to why I keep writing Daryl when it is Danny. I think it may have something to do with me always thinking you were Ross when in fact that is your Confirmation name & not your Baptismal name.

Anyway - there has to be a cold can there sometime.

Cheers Douglas
New Re: 10 points CRC
Ross is my middle name and what everybody calls me. I feel I owe it to
Pop to also use the name he wanted to call me. So I use that one in writing.

New And?
Chicago used to be covered by a glacier. It no longer is due to "global warming".

Think you could convince the signers of the [link|http://www.oism.org/pproject/s33p37.htm|Global Warming Petition]
We urge the United States government to reject the global warming agreement that was written in Kyoto, Japan in December, 1997, and any other similar proposals. The proposed limits on greenhouse gases would harm the environment, hinder the advance of science and technology, and damage the health and welfare of mankind.

There is no convincing scientific evidence that human release of carbon dioxide, methane, or other greenhouse gasses is causing or will, in the foreseeable future, cause catastrophic heating of the Earth's atmosphere and disruption of the Earth's climate. Moreover, there is substantial scientific evidence that increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide produce many beneficial effects upon the natural plant and animal environments of the Earth.
The [link|http://www.oism.org/pproject/s33p357.htm|signers] include
more than 17,100 basic and applied American scientists, two-thirds with advanced degrees, have signed the Global Warming Petition.

Signers of this petition so far include 2,660 physicists, geophysicists, climatologists, meteorologists, oceanographers, and environmental scientists (select this link for a listing of these individuals) who are especially well qualified to evaluate the effects of carbon dioxide on the Earth's atmosphere and climate.

Signers of this petition also include 5,017 scientists whose fields of specialization in chemistry, biochemistry, biology, and other life sciences (select this link for a listing of these individuals) make them especially well qualified to evaluate the effects of carbon dioxide upon the Earth's plant and animal life.

New Re: And?
The scientists who signed (especially those with no knowledge or experience in climate) should be "persuaded" to move to north Canada. Or Siberia.
New So?
The glaciers are not generally stable in interglacial periods. Melting ice from the last Ice Age is to be expected.

Same thing happened a thousand years ago as well, and probably happened faster then.

You're typing on a device that stores trillions of pieces of data and makes billions of computations per second with the ability to grab data on almost anything from around the world in milliseconds, using electricity transmitted from hundreds of kilometers through wires on towers dozens of meters tall connected to megastructures that do things like burn coal as fast as entire trains can pull into the yard, or spin in the wind with blades the size of jumbo jets, or the like, which were delivered to their location by vehicles with computer-timed engines burning a fuel that was pumped up halfway around the world from up to half a dozen kilometers underground and locked into complex strata (through wells drilled by diamond-lined bores that can be remote-control steered as they go), shipped around the world in tankers with volumes the size of large city blocks and the height of apartment complexes, run through complex chemical processes in unimaginable quantities, distributed nationwide and sold to you at a corner store for $1.80 a gallon, which you then pay for with a little piece of microchipped plastic, if not a smartphone, which does all of the aforementioned computer stuff but in a box the size of your hand that tolerates getting beaten up in your pocket all day.

But technology never seems to advance...
