Cecil, your observation regarding the breakage of the ice caps tells
us that we are moving back to a particular climate that in the past
was normal!


There is no such thing as a normal climate. It changes over time, and
short term is very variable.



We can learn about that and past environments by
examining the different layers of ice. The last ice cap to shear
revealed a
reed coracle occupied by people in animal fur holding stone tools.
None of these had green cards which emphasizes what goes around comes
around with additions supplied by man


Man has no effect upon the weather? Fine, show me the mechanism by which
the retention of heat in the atmosphere is not affect by the percentage
of greenhouse gases and water vapor. We would not exist without the
effect, so discarding the effect is impossible.

So now, WHY is the increased percentage being negated. To show a heat
retention effect is not difficult, middle school students do it all the
time.

But what we get is political statements. A political statement declaring
that the greenhouse effect doesn't exist is just as valid as noting
that since the present administration has been in office, there haven't
been any hurricanes. So therefore, there are less hurricanes when
Democrats are in office. Of course that's a stupid statement. But both
statements are. non-sequitar maximus.

BTW, mining the available data to produce one anomalous result is just
as bogus. The creationists and lunar landing hoaxers have been doing
that for years. You have to produce the theory first, then find
supporting or refuting facts. The deniers don't produce an alternate
theory - they only try to disprove.
