The ice shelf broke off because it was too heavy/massive.

Too much ice.

Somebody tie a rope around it and tow that bugger here! Meanwhile, anyone want to go in with me on a seaside condo complex WAY DOWN SOUTH? Investors line up on the left!

Whatever happened to the theory of melting ice disrupting the ocean currents which distribute heat?

Last I heard it was going to cause an ice age.

I'm confused.

QuoteMuller's research team carefully examined two chief criticisms by skeptics. One is that weather stations are unreliable; the other is that cities, which create heat islands, were skewing the temperature analysis.

"The skeptics raised valid points and everybody should have been a skeptic two years ago," Muller said in a telephone interview. "And now we have confidence that the temperature rise that had previously been reported had been done without bias."

Muller said that he came into the study "with a proper skepticism," something scientists "should always have. I was somewhat bothered by the fact that there was not enough skepticism" before.

    lunican, thanks for that video on the monster storm roaring across Alaska. A storm twice te size of Texas with hurricane  strength winds reaching 90 m/h. I was is Alaska in Febr. with temps at minus 30, so I can only imagine how horrific this storm must have been!

    "Once in a life time" weather has been hammering the US all year long.

    Once in a generation weather, now coming every month

    The video says:

    • freak Oct snow storm crippled the NE. The early snow storm cancellled halloween in the NE

    • raging tx fires in Sept


    • hurricane Irene flooded New England


    • Country's Second hottest summer on record

    • The driest summer in TX, even worse than the dust bowl years

    • deadliest and costliest weather ever this year

    .

    "If you go into the public arena and claim to have generated evidence that is stronger than the IPCC, where is the detailed, scientific evidence? Has he used fundamental new data sets?" Santer said. "Publish the science and report on it after it's done."

    He added: "I think you can do great harm to the broader debate. Imagine this scenario: that he makes these great claims and the papers aren't published? This is in the spirit of publicity, not the spirit of science."

    And yet in the 1980s the same scientists said that we were having global cooling. Where is the "science" that ties it to greenhouse gases? If enough people say it then it must be true?
