As I've been writing about all week, a lot of baloney misinformation is being spread about the ice at the north pole<https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.slate.com%2Fblogs%2Fbad_astronomy&oq=site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.slate.com%2Fblogs%2Fbad_astronomy&ie=UTF-8#q=site:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.slate.com%2Fblogs%2Fbad_astronomy+climate+rose>. Yes, the amount of area covered by ice this year is more than last year at this time, but the critical things to know are that a) last year was a record low, with the minimum extent blowing way down below the previous record, so comparing this year to *just* last year is grossly misleading, and 2) this year's minimum is *way* below average, so far from being in recovery,the Arctic sea ice is anemic indeed<http://nsidc.org/news/press/2013_arcticseaiceminimum_PR.html> . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:367420 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
