This ony goes to show that Global Warming doesn't have much basis supported by fact.
If humans were there when it was thawed out hundreds of years ago, and even thousands of years ago, then this must be a natural trend, no?

Wow, how did those ancient artifacts get underneath all that ice?

That there have been long-standing cycles of naturally increasing and decreasing temperatures does not by itself indicate whether any present observed increase or decrease is naturalin origin.
It's similar to the way getting heads 10x in a row tells you nothing at all about the odds of getting heads on the 11th toss, it's still 1:2.

That's a good article...and scientists probably really aren't surprised...it's just a matter of finding the right spot...with the right stuff.
THE GRANT MONEY IS FOR 4 years (to examine 8 islands.) I'll bet it's a huuuuuuge sum of money.

In 1997, sheep hunters discovered a 4,300-year-old dart shaft in caribou dung that had become exposed as the ice receded. See, it was the caribou that caused the first round of global warming back in 2000 BC. No, maybe it was the demise of this group of caribou that brought on a mini ice age which is now melting because of the current human-caused global warming. Uggg, I'm sooo confused! Either way we can be certain that somehow it was Bush's fault.

Lots of speculation and few facts. Are these mountains in England North America or where? Reference was made to a retreating ice but all it show is a rock that could be anywhere. No reference to anything except authors opinion.
