Support President Bush's Clear Skies Initiative today! The Earth hangs in the balance. All the snow melt from Mt. Everest will flood the herbaceous borders in YOUR BACK YARD if you don't....

Good, I always wanted to climb Everest. This should make it easier.

``I shrink also when it is cold.``

Ah yes., the dreaded scare turtle syndrom.

Yep.

Improvement in measurement techniques is the result of Global Warming.

I knew it all the time.

If the Chinese and Indians are concerned, they can join the Kyoto Protocol. Oh, wait a minute, those two countries are both exempt...

That and this... Mt Everest is rising due to a collision of rocks under the surface. It's bound to produce some sort of heat. Any one else thing that?

Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay first conquered the peak in 1953.

Obviously named after Hillary Rodham, who was born October 26, 1947.

Maybe plate tectonics? Mountains grow, mountains shrink. It is geology!
