   Righto, now compare how much ice 2007 had on July 18th. You’ll find we currently have less. So, what’s your point?

     The point is that many alarmists are going to be wailing and gnashing teeth in about a week,

       Right – I interpret that to mean you’re making a prediction that extent losses are about to slow and that 2011 will rise significantly above the 2007 curve within “about a week”. Nice to see something concrete from you for once. Would you mind sharing your basis for that prediction? Is it the weather forecast, the state of the ice, or what? I agree the ice appears marginally more compact this year than in 2007 – extent is currently noticeably lower than 2007 but area is almost identical. Is that the deciding factor?
