Judging from the last two winter seasons this may be true . The Little
Ice Age is almost here . Has anyone seen or heard of Al Gore lately ?


There will be no little Ice Age. The earth is hotter than it has ever
been with people on it, and that will continue. The magnetic collapse in
the sun will not be enough to balance out our trashing of the
atmosphere. There were 1/6 as many people in the 17th century.


That is surely it, just think of the heat gain which can be written off
to the dinosaurs in that time frame!
