A few of the details of the glacial cycle are a bit different from the
ones I had heard before, but overall the whole picture is in line with
how I understand it, yes. This understanding is based on lurking
around midwestern paleoclimatologists of late.

Paleo is not my own background, and they shouldn't be held responsible
for the extent to which I remain confused.

That said, to me what Hansen says appears more or less in proportion
with the standard paeloclimatologist / paleoglaciologist position.
Though there remains some disagreement on details, the expectation
that we are almost surely in for a very bumpy ride for centuries and
probably millenia as a consequence of current activity is not, in my
opinion, controversial in those circles.

Can I take it that you disagree?
