But sea levels will also fall by the same amount so the rise will be hidden in the fall and will not be detectable except by examining the entrails of goats and swirling tea leaves.

“The Hansen” has spoken!

Then again the state of North American ice sheets may depend on whether or not Firestone et al. are right or wrong about their NA boloid theory about 13,000 years ago.

You gotta hand it to the guy, despite almost every single one of his prognostications turning out to be wrong, he doesn’t bat an eyelid but just right on going. And they keep letting him.

Please help me out here.
"Almost every single one [predictions} has been wrong?"

Which one has been right?
out of how many predictions total?

If this guy is on the wrong side of "flipping a coin" accuracy, he should be investigated and fired for incompetence!

Am I the only one who sees the weasel words?
"It is this scenario for which we assert that multi-meter sea level rise on the century time scale are not only possible, but almost dead certain.”
Unfortunately, the premise (non facts) which supports 'this scenario' is false. Hence the assertion falls firmly in the "Garbage in, Garbage Out" category.

NASA needs to establish a permanent two man outpost on the Moon, and I've got the perfect two in mind....Hansen and Gore.

I beg to differ my good sir, it should be a 3 man outpost to include the honorable Dr. Mann whom is the author of the "hockey stick" temperature fraud.

“Almost Dead Certain”
“Sort of Pregnant”
“Clearly Cloudy”
“A Little Dead”
“Nearly Conscious”
“A Warm Snowstorm”

Thanks for the ping, Ernest_at_the_Beach!

...Apparently, Beijing Jim reckons that something called “albedo flip”...

Sorry, but “albedo flip” really sounds like some sort of unnatural act to me.

I agree with your recommendation, Sir. Another Mann on the Moon it is.
