You happen to be in an Inter-Glacial Period at the present.

If and when the average global temperature increases 10.4° F, the only thing you can say is that the average global temperature during this Inter-Glacial Period is just as warm as in the last Inter-Glacial Period.


Your side blinked and moved the goal posts.

Your side switched from AGW to the Göbbelesque "Climate Change" and now you're mad because intelligent people aren't buying into the con game.

Reminding...

Climate change and global warming aren't the same thing.
There has been no switch.
I was making a point about the term and its use in casual discussions, not talking about the natural and manmade causes of climate change.

It's like everything I say is aggressively misunderstood simply so the deniers can retreat to their familiar arguments about leftist plots and 'the climate always changes'.

Yeah, right.

The climate always changes.

Q: Why is the Greenland ice-sheet not more than 110,000 years old?

A: Because it completely melted during the last Inter-Glacial Period (and it completely melted during the period before that, and the period before that, and the one before that....).


It's frustrating that people cannot accept reality.



For those who are interested, Mark Steyn has written a book waiting around for Michael Mann to get his hockey ****ck act lawsuit together: "A Disgrace To The Profession": The World's Scientists In Their Own Words On Michael E Mann, His Hockey Stick, And Their Damage To Science[LEFT][/LEFT]

For those who don't know, Mann has filed a defamation and libel lawsuit against Steyn.

After four years, how many scientists have filed an amicus brief in support of Mann?

ZERO.

Mann claims he's taking a stand for science, by filing his lawsuit, but science doesn't want to take a stand for Mann.

Too bad...
