Here's somthing that cracks me up about the glaciers melting theory. It was slammed all over the papers and news that the resulting catastrophy of these melting glaciers would result in most of the pacific islands dissapearing under the ocean by several feet by 2010... even meters, as a result of the melt... yet they are still there..... but yes, the average water height has lifted by a mear 1.2mm.......... poor islanders.
Walshy does have a point about the temperature records. Our temp records only go back about the last 100 - 110 years or so. And even things you hear like average temps breaking records made in 1970's, or 1950's, or even longest consecutive days at high temps not beating 1908 records, certainly does put things into prospective and make you ask if it is true or not.
