Somewhere about back then the story was we were causing the world to cool and maybe the ice sheet didn't get that memo.

Thanks for sharing this. Found this also:

"It will without doubt have come to your Lordship's knowledge that a considerable change of climate, inexplicable at present to us, must have taken place in the Circumpolar Regions, by which the severity of the cold that has for centuries past enclosed the seas in the high northern latitudes in an impenetrable barrier of ice has been during the last two years, greatly abated.

(This) affords ample proof that new sources of warmth have been opened and give us leave to hope that the Arctic Seas may at this time be more accessible than they have been for centuries past, and that discoveries may now be made in them not only interesting to the advancement of science but also to the future intercourse of mankind and the commerce of distant nations."
President of the Royal Society, London, to the Admiralty, 20th November, 1817 [13]

Next time you’re in an argument with someone who is totally convinced that global warming is a) man made and b) unprecedented, why not show them this brief video from Watts Up With That? Game over! (Hat tip: Plato Says)

There is no such thing as a settled science. If you don't believe me, then take a philosophy of science course.

If my name is Dick, then my name is Dick. When science uses irresponsible evidence proving my name isn't Dick, I needn't be burdered with proving that my name is indeed Dick.
It was tyranny (the pimp) that dirtied up the earth. Who pays the price though? Why, it will be the people (the whore) of course. What will ever free us from this nonsense? Well, according to the Almighty, the Truth will set us free.
