ORIGINAL: Phydeaux Eh Ken, Still no counter to the washington post article: "media stories rarely if ever mention that ice is accumulating over the larger area of East Antarctica and that the continent as a whole is gaining snow and ice mass" Already did. You simply handwaved away reality. Now about that lie you told about me editing something, where is your retraction? You certainly have snipped my posts; and you've done so to make things look idiotic. Nowhere, for example, did I make the argument that any particular spot in the antartic is the ice thinning and thickening. Still no quote yet to counter the WP post that said "larger area of East Antarctica and that the continent as a whole is gaining snow and ice mass." So are you prepared to admit again, you are factually in accurate and their is, in fact more ice in the Antarctic ? No, I never edited your posts. You simply lied. And I still await your retraction and apology. As to your cognitive dissonance: quote:
ORIGINAL: Phydeaux The article mentioned above (scroll back) specifically is *not* sea ice. The only spot on the continent where the ice is not thicker is the western ross peninsula. And the cause of the thinner ice there is not "global warming" but rather a newly discovered volcano range that are melting the ice from below and causing it to shift to the sea faster. And the Forbes, Post, op-ed is not backed up by facts. It is simply the assertion of a guy who makes a living working for the oil industry. And has been explained to you before if it is snowing more over Antarctica it is because the air over the continent has gotten substantially warmer.
