I think somebody needs to watch “Annie” again, listen to her sing the song, and then feel all better.

Oh Noez, global warming is shortening our lifespans. We’ll have to redo all our calendars and what about all those watches and clocks? Oh the humanity.

Based on the posts here, it seems people either didn’t read the article, or have very poor reading comprehension skills.

They seem to be downhill from a glacial ice field, so if it MOVES I guess there could be a drop in the height of the ice locally.

They are undoubtedly hoping and praying that all that spare ice just sublimated away ~ BTW, there's no sign that the ice MELTED this winter ~ like it has been cold there anyway.

Normally on a hot summer's day (6 months from now) they have enough moss to send the dogs out for a run, but otherwise this is a very desolate place way up at the end of nowhere!

If the glacier moved and I lived there I'd be hitting the ol' kayak outta' there!

Yea I finally read all the way down the page. I would be thrilled too and not complain. I’m all for global warming(yes I know it’s not man made). Maybe our winters wouldn’t go from nov. to april with 250+/- inches of snow a year.

That happened here, too. When the sun came up this morning, I opened my bleary eyes and said “That’s way too early.”

I’m with you, fella! Tampa International Airport recently had to change their runway designations due to a shift in the magnetic north. If there’s even a 1 degree shift, there will be drastic changes in global activities (see Australia).

Idiots. The weather has nothing to do with when the sun rises. Haven’t any of these fools taken a basic earth science or astronomy course? And they call Sarah Palin dumb! Wow.

Panorama of Ilulissat, Greenland:

As you can see, the local area is rocky. Changes in ice elevation would not change the day in which the first sunrise is observed. I offer two other possibilities:

1. The reference point, from which sunrise is determined, was moved. This is the most likely explanation for the sudden change.
2. There was a minor change in the elevation of the local earth's crust. I'm not familiar with the tectonics of the town.

On land it isn’t possible

Actually, it is. There are 47 peaks in the NH White Mountains that are 4000' or higher. About 30 years ago, there were 46 of them. What happened? Well, one "grew". The only surprising thing here, completely unexpected the the present day vernacular, is why (or when?) do the Warmists not claim that AGW is responsible for making the peaks rise in New Hampshire?

The truth is that SCIENTISTS are BAFFLED about SCIENCE!

True science confuses them when you remove the POLITICAL COMPONENT and FUNDS to promote phoney science.

This is obviously caused by shift in horoscopes that was announced yesterday. It’s so simple really.

Well, the eastern edge of the North American plate is actually in Iceland. There is a canyon where one side is in America, and the other in Europe. It is a canyon because the plates are pulling away from each other. (reference: “A Crack in the Edge of the World”, by Simon Winchester, p. 67)
