If memory serves me correctly, there was a link on these pages a couple of months ago that quoted a “scientist” that claimed that the Arctic ice cap would completely melt this year. I’ve been following this link - http://igloo.atmos.uiuc.edu/cgi-bin/test/print.sh - to follow the ice melt over the summer and it sure doesn’t look like it’s going to disappear anytime soon. Yea, the sunspots are fun to follow as well.
It also will give an un-intelligent observer a false impression as they decided to employ a non-linear scale in their illustration.
Lies, damn lies, and statistics I tell you!
