That is not to say we are >not in a warmer period than at any time in history, Ummm... since RECORDED TEMPERATURES, that is. Which is only ~ 150 years, since the invention of the thermometer. So, while you correctly quoted him, his statement is bullshit. It's not 'at any time in history'. The Midevial and Roman warm periods, for recent examples, were warmer than it is now. BTW, we're STILL coming out of the recent 'Little Ice Age', so what do they expect , if not warming ? >just that contrary >to all of the models, the rise in temperature has plateau since 1998. > >So in spite of massive amounts of greenhouse gasses being pumped into >the atmosphere, more than at any time in modern history, the rise in >temperature stopped and in fact fell slightly since 98. > >So what happened? > >It has been reported Kevin E.

Like you said "MAY make the Marianas trench the second deepest place on earth" I await the results...but I am most assuredly NOT holding my breath.

Hmm obviously you are used to dealing with the weak stuff.

Not what it says in the article, mind.

No, the UCR Physics lab has an *extremely* heavy-duty Faraday cage. |
