Ah, but what Hansen may be failing to factor into his calculations is all the additional hot air (and, in some cases, even 'methane') being generated by all the Chicken-Little crowd's jawboning on this subject.

I suspect that the most dangerous 'global-warming effect' is more likely the destruction of our economy by those who are "well-meaning, but without understanding" trying to 'fix' it, than any possible risk of us all drowning in seawater and/or melted glaciers.

...Yeah, now that you mention it, I guess you're right... I'm really NOT too certain about that 'well-meaning' part I guess...)

My apologies. Although, after reading the rest of this thread, I am left with my initial impression - that allowing politicians to attempt to try to 'fix' global climate change is likely more dangerous to our overall welfare than those changes themselves, it is now evident to me that this discussion is WAY to serious for the post I just submitted. Sorry to intrude. Lesson learned.
