You know, just looking at the history of Greenland gives a very good indication of climate shift over the centuries, and even what's known as "The Little Ice Age" that occurred between the 16th and 19th centuries. I have serious doubts that mankind caused Greenland to be warm enough at one point that barley could be grown as far north as the 70th parallel, or that we caused cooling to the extent that alpine glaciers destroyed Swiss villages in the 17th Century. I suppose that when referenced to that period we are, indeed, in a warming trend. But so what? Greenland has a long historical record of warming and cooling. It's naturally cyclical, and impossible to blame on mankind's actions.

Looking at photos of the polar ice caps over the past several years there is no denying that they're receding. But at the same time, New York City is most definitely NOT underwater, nor is Miami. Or London. Or any other seaport in the world (except, of course, New Orleans, but that's another story). There is big money being made through this Chicken Little attitude about global warming - oh, sorry, climate change. See, they've even gotten politically correct about what to call their scam....uh, cause... no, wait..... catastrophe! Yeah, that's it. A man made catastrophe.

But I digress.

Read those two entries and look at the time lines - there have been some pretty dramatic temperature shifts over the years, and I'm not talking about 100,000 or even 10,000 years - just a few hundred.
