most of us probably could go back to the hunter-gatherer lifestyle if we had to. It's the PETA people and the virulent environmentalists and vegetarians who would probably do the most moaning about what they had in "the good old days".

I suspect we would know exactly what to do with the village con-artist who wanted us to work so he had food. :-)

Uh-oh! that means there's a lot more dry ice around the polar caps than there ever was, so the rain in rainshowers won't be as wet.

WE'RE ALL GONNA DRY!!!

SWAG. Deforestation?

All we need to do is figure out what was done 651,000 years ago to CO2 levels down.

I don't know. It's been really cold here for the last week and it isn't even December yet.

"it should read 12,000 feet thick. Even that seems like a large number, but I've seen it referenced elsewhere and I belive it to be in the range of a number of estimates."

this is MY post. where did I say it was 2300 miles? if you want to ridicule someone, at least read the post carefully so that you are ridiculing the right person. I do believe 12,000 feet is in the range of a little more than 2 miles, correct?

A little something from the hypocrite signatories of Kyoto to the north of U.S.

Where's Al Gore he's part of the problem. Why can't he be part of the solution. LOL

...read the post carefully so that you are ridiculing the right person.

I wasn't ridiculing you, Rickyle, I was agreeing with you...

I was ridiculing the article's obvious error. I referenced "TWO MILES" because that is the figure I have seen for the thickness and it was close to your estimate of 12,000 feet thick. I am sorry if you misinterpreted my intent.

Yeah, us too. They come almost right up to the house. I would hate to have to consider them dinner, but they are so thick out here the hunters have to keep them thinned out or they would die of starvation.

I guess I did misunderstand your post.
