We are still recovering from the "little ice age" of the dark ages. We have not yet reached the global temperatures extant at the time Eric the Red discovered Newfoundland's shores. Let me say that again, (paraphrased) for effect. It's still colder globally, than it was 1,000 years ago.
Please! You think the proponents of these global warming theories are going to let something as silly as historical fact get in the way??
