    ... and further more; polar caps on other solar system bodies are getting smaller... most notably; Mars.

    "Just when you were starting to believe that variations in the amount of energy coming from the sun weren't responsible for much of the observed surface warming during the past 20 years, comes along a paper in Geophysical Research Letters from two researchers at Duke University, Nicola Scafetta and Bruce West, that concludes otherwise:

    We estimate that the sun contributed as much as 45-50% of the 1900-2000 global warming, and 25-35% of the 1980-2000 global warming. These results, while confirming that anthropogenic-added climate forcing might have progressively played a dominant role in climate change during the last century, also suggest that the solar impact on climate change during the same period is significantly stronger than what some theoretical models have predicted."

      Rising seas, caused by global warming, have for the first time washed an inhabited island off the face of the Earth.

  Cat, if you can't believe the research that has been performed and documented by experts in the field of weather and climate, people who have doctorate degrees and years of experience studying this, then you you will NEVER believe it even as the ocean rises around your shoulders from the melting of the polar ice.

  I have LOTS of links, all from studies by experts in their fields from YEARS of research. But since you won't believe them anyway, I won't bother to post them.

  Cat, here's a lump of coal for Christmas and a new hearing aid that doesn't filter out the truth like the one you are wearing!

  Smoking is good for you too, right? Right?
