I guess you missed the part where he said "hot areas will get hotter and cold areas will get colder". You just proved his point.

Maybe you should at least taste the punch before declaring it to be poison. Did you even watch the movie?

,edit.

Did you read the article you linked to?

Quote:
Bill Chapman, a researcher with the Arctic Climate Center at the University of Illinois, says the rapid increase is "no big deal". He says that, while the Arctic has certainly been colder in recent months, the long-term decrease is still ongoing. Chapman, who predicts that sea ice will soon stop growing, sees nothing in the recent data to contradict predictions of global warming.

Hardly. Did you notice he only fed you 300 years of data - approximately the lowest point of our mini ice age until now? Or did he fail to mention the glacier melt that has been steady and started before the use of hydrocarbons? NO! He conveniently left that part out.

So hows your Kool Aid? You swallowed a ton of it.

Don't sweat it Mothballs, he never fully reads the articles he posts.

I seem to remember a similar thread where the author of the article Subman posted acually admitted in a postscript that the evidence that he had used to support about 90% of his argument was in fact wrong; didn't stop ol' Subman from running with it though, despite me drawing his attention to it several times.

Doesn't bother me.

Selective reading? The person who read it to him didn't finish it.

Some people are so blinded by their own bigotry towards anything they don't believe they can't see the truth or open their minds to any other possibilities. It's fun to occasionally poke them with a stick just to watch them get all excited.

Explain to me where I have selective reading. Since you can't, I'd say the above is an attack on me based on selective reading since they didn't bother to read the article! :p

PS. I forgot to mention the record cold even in non arctic areas last year, and expected to be worse this year. But everyone in this thread seems to be on the Al Gore Kool Aid.
