   Falsifying alarmist claptrap is as simple as “ABC”

   Step A : Compare the latest image of the Arctic Ice with a previous year on the same date. Let’s say 2006……..

   Step B : Check the September minimum for 2006 (5.78 thousand square kms on September 14th. according to IJIS).

   Step C : Conclude that Craig Dillon’s article is highly-speculative, hysterical (in more than one sense of the word) BS.

     Should, of course read 5.78 MILLION square km’s.

     Sorry. My bad.

   Well, I for one, plan on heading down to Cuba for a week this coming Tuesday. I don’t know how I will manage the 30-40 C change in temperature, but I think a few beers and kick back on the beach, let off some methane gas once in a while and enjoy the surf…how will I ever manage…..

   Yep, I’ve a suggestion. We should all run around screaming “the sky is falling!”

   Now, doesn’t that feel better?

   I’m just glad the death spiral is finally here. This will create a whole new market for tropical island cruise ships. Passengers can throw twinkies to the polar bears treading water.

   The Arctic ice is preparing itself is it? Makes it sound like a thinking entity ! 🙂

   He is right that there will be a large reduction in sea ice area this summer. But that happens every year. Nobody knows what is going to happen this summer.
