My question -- if the Arctic perennial ice cover actually shrinks this much in a decade, will Senator Inhofe still be claiming that global warming is a hoax?

And when these doom stories fade away will you still be claiming it is not? No one is denying there has been some warming. It is the doomsday crap that is passed off as 'science' that people with a brain object to.

If the "doom stories" fade away, I'll stop posting them... and I will be very much surprised.

As even some of the other posts on this thread indicate, it is clear that the Earth is warming. While the contribution of human activity has not been fully quantified, this aspect of the science is improving, and it can be qualitatively said with authority that the human contribution to the currently observed climate trends is not negligible. So anthropogenic global warming is not a hoax, as Inhofe has repeatedly claimed. I know he's wrong. The question of concern is the path of warming in the future; merely noticeable, somewhat annoying, disruptive, or catastrophic.
