    1. Who needs the ice-melt data when you can simply double the hell out of the "unlimited thermal expansion" myth currently in vogue.

  2. They don't include feedback loops or radiation either Mark.
    IPCC is just a straw-organization to prevent any real action on business as usual. Don't worry though, civilization will be its own un-doing.

  4. Thanks Dredd and Tom!
    I'll file 'this' under 'sell-outs to maintain their financial net worth.' I note their 'character, dignity and honor' accounts are all zeros.

    "First thing I remember was askin' papa, "Why?",
    For there were many things I didn't know.
    And Daddy always smiled; took me by the hand,
    Sayin', "Someday you'll understand."
