ROTFLMAO.
Coppcock does it again!!!!
Shriller and shriller as global cooling takes hold!
This area constitutes about 2% of Antarctica, and as the article says,
through gritted teeth, the other 98% of Antarctica is COOLING!
QUOTE: "Much of the continent is not warming and some parts are even
cooling, Vaughan said. However, the western peninsula, which includes
the Wilkins ice shelf, juts out into the ocean and is warming. "
ALSO NB:
There is a small area of significant warming in the peninsula that
points towards South America, but this is less than 2% of Antarctica's
total land mass.

Some perspective On Hyped Antarctic Ice Shelf Collapses
Posted by jennifer
March 26, 2008
http://www.jennifermarohasy.com/blog/archives/002869
.html
There is an Australian e-journal that is popular with many
government-types called crikey.com.au. Today the lead story began,
"A chunk of ice seven times the size of Manhattan (as big as the Isle of
Man if you prefer a more Anglo-centric news source) is hanging by a
thread to the main, still-frozen body of the western Antarctic.
Satellite images are showing the rapid disintegration of a 41km x 2.5km
ice chunk, a part of the Wilkins Ice Shelf that has been there for
hundreds, maybe 1,500 years. It is happening, the scientific consensus
seems to be, because the seas are getting warmer. It's that greenhouse
thing.
So, what to do? Blame China? No, we need to take individual
responsibility. Wait on the Garnaut report? No, too little too late. We
must act now ... of course! Let's turn some lights off on Saturday. For
an hour. That'll fix it. Meanwhile, click on the image below to watch a
video of what Earth Hour is up against." [end of quote]
Anyway, that's about as clever as it gets even from the so-called
alternative media and the story is much the same in The Australian.
Then of course there are the blogs, including some which actually
provide data and background information to put the collapse of the
icesheet in some context:
"In reality it and all the former shelves that collapsed are small and
most near the Antarctic peninsula which sticks well out from Antarctica
into the currents and winds of the South Atlantic and lies in a
tectonically active region with surface and subsurface active volcanic
activity. The vast continent has actually cooled since 1979...
"The full Wilkins 6,000 square mile ice shelf is just 0.39% of the
current ice sheet (just 0.1% of the extent last September). Only a small
portion of it between 1/10th-1/20th of Wilkins has separated so far,
like an icicle falling off a snow and ice covered house. And this winter
is coming on quickly. In fact the ice is returning so fast, it is
running an amazing 60% ahead (4.0 vs 2.5 million square km extent) of
last year when it set a new record. The ice extent is already
approaching the second highest level for extent since the measurements
began by satellite in 1979 and just a few days into the Southern
Hemisphere winter and 6 months ahead of the peak. Wilkins like all the
others that temporarily broke up will refreeze soon. We are very likely
going to exceed last year's record. Yet the world is left with the false
impression Antarctica's ice sheet is also starting to disappear."

"In scientific circles, C02 is referred to as a `trace gas' that, for
hundreds of thousands of years, has remained at or below five
ten-thousandths of the atmosphere by volume. Even among the so-called
`greenhouse gases' (GHG), C02 accounts for less than 4%, with water
vapour being by far the most significant GHG. C02 is clearly a
miniscule component of the massive mechanisms that create climate and
cause climate change."

Alarmists are forced to concentrate on part of the West Antarctic that
sticks out into the currents and winds of South Atlantic, plus there may
be tectonic and volcanic activity. Yawn, bring on the next non-scary
scare.

"Attributing global climate change to human CO2 production is akin to
trying to diagnose an automotive problem by ignoring the engine
(analogous to the Sun in the climate system) and the transmission (water
vapour) and instead focusing entirely, not on one nut on a rear wheel,
which would be analogous to total CO2, but on one thread on that nut,
which represents the human contribution." Dr. Timothy Ball, Chairman of

And once again you are caught lying. Timothy Ball isn't a former professor
of climatology, and the University of Winnipeg has no climatoloty program.
Ball is a former geography professor with no training in climatology who
couldn't make it as a university professor (pubishing a total of 4 papers in
his entire career), and then cashing in by jumping on the big oil Gravy
train.
You should ask Ball about the little incident concerning the
Misappropriattion of University Resources at the University of Calgary by
his propaganda group - Friends of Science..

What Cooling. Here are the figures for the last decade.
1998 14.57 *********************o*****
1999 14.33 *****************>>>>o
2000 14.33 *****************>>>>>o
2001 14.48 ************************o
2002 14.56 *************************o**
2003 14.55 **************************o*

2005 14.63 *****************************o**
2006 14.54 ***************************>>>o
2007 14,57 *****************************
Look at all those "o"'s lined up there. The trend is up, Up, UP.
So Fool, who is paying you to post lies to this newsgroup?
