Ah yes!

But, you see, THIS event is (mis)used now to explain “how” the coming global warming will destroy the Gulf Stream and cause another global catastrophe ... Thus requiring socialistic controls over everybody's’s power and energy.

But, what the AGW extremists (conveniently) ignore is that - today - there is NO ice mass this big across Canada - therefore, there can be NO mass melting and NO interruption of the Gulf Stream.

History CANNOT repeat itself (this time!) because the precursors are completely absent! Yet, this time, because it IS convenient for the AGW extremists to -re-use history, they DO WANT to repeat this scenario.

(Note also that there is written history of a massive flood about this frame in the MidEast and around the world

Every civilization has a “great flood” myth because ...

... every once in a while, there is a once-in-500-year great flood.

Odds are, every place on the planet other than mountain-tops has been great flooded at least once.

I grew up a thousand miles away from you, and about four miles from the lake’s shoreline. Big lake.

Regarding the article: I’m impressed with these scientists. Insight and intuition, followed up by real research that tends right now to support their hypothesis.

This is how science needs to be done. I commend them.

Fossil fish capital of the world? Kemmerer, Wyoming, just south of Jackson.

At one time the entire western United States was under water.

Very interesting area of the coutry. Dinosaur National Monument is just south of Kemmerer in Colorado, and morte dinosuar stuff at Vernal, Utah. The website says that the area around Kemmerer was a “sub-tropical” lake. Other evidence from around the area suggests that the entire Western United States was under water at one time.

“Odds are, every place on the planet other than mountain-tops has been great flooded at least once.”

The peak of Mt. Everest is littered with marine fossils.

As the temperature gradually rose some 10,000 years ago, the ice receded, gouging out the hollows that would be called the Great Lakes.

Now that's climate change.

Wouldn't the gouging have occurred while the ice was building up and moving forward, not while it was melting (receding)?

The 45 foot increase in sea level, however, sounds too high for a lake which would have been a small fraction of the total sea surface.

I found that odd too. Doesn't seem to be mathematically possible.

I’m so glad we have global warming here in the midwest. It’s more than 20 degrees below normal as it is. I can’t imagine how cold it would be without global warming.

One of the zombies in my family made some cryptic stupid remark about how “people don’t understand” how the weather could be colder because of global warming. The cult think is pretty disturbing.
