The usual suspects with the usual hooey, for the 1001st time. What a surprise! I must not even read it to know what it is about: hooey.

Pedersen glacier, Alaska

Muir glacier, Alaska

Northwestern glacier, Alaska

Bear glacier, alaska

McCarty glacier, Alaska

Time-wise limited paradoxical effects due to climate warming have been described, forseen and explained since years. Why the ice in parts of the antarctic for some years will increase in thickness and why this is an evidence for air and sea warming up, has been explained since years. It also has been forseen. Why in some regions of the world glaciers eventually for a short while will give the impression to increase in size, has been explained since years. But feel free to ignore all that for another couple of years: that is called the right of free opionion. but having a right of free opinion does not mean that the question wether or not 2 plus 2 makes 4 is open for discussion, and is a question of opinion. You can be of the very precious and very important opinion that 2+2=4 is wrong - but who cares.

Having an opinion and having a reasonable argument - are two totally different things. Just be loud enough: and people will mistake volume for argument.
