Interesting... curious what is known about this.
Have you seen the movie "Ao, the last Neanderthal"? This somewhat cave-man meets cave-girl love story for the most part adheres to facts known about that time 30,000 years ago. One aspect it showed was a prevalent condition affecting Ao's dad and Ao as well with the symptom of bloody nose and mucus passageways. I was wondering if there was something backing this part of the story... your post indicates that there was.
We still have that technology, and it is called the human foot.
The ice did not suddenly appear, it got colder and colder every year for quite a while and people moved south, over the course of many years.
Today we would do it differently. In addition to Obama phones, the government will start passing out Obama SUVs. While this might raise CO2 levels, we will discover what real scientists have been saying for decades. CO2 has about the same effect as passing gas in a tornado. But, since the Obama SUVs, will bankrupt the nation, we will all freeze together--achieving income equality as we die.
The only thing guaranteed in Neanderthal research is that every theory has a dozen angry, bitter rebuttal theories, every one of which creates acrimony between researches.
Seriously, they are one of the most contentious groups of scientists out there. And they take it all with deadly seriousness, *precisely* because it is so trivial.
We’ve been in an ice age for about 3 million years. We are currently enjoying an inter-glacial period.
Human beings, in the form of homo erectus, appeared about 2 million years ago.
I still prefer warming compared to what’s going to happen in the next glacial period.
I was talking about growing food.
Yes, and those were minor drops in temperature, compared to the ones that almost killed off humans more than once.
I notice that myself. Of course we simply have to point out that the climate has always been changing and that man has not yet had a significant impact.

They will sit there freezing to death and stay on the 'Party Line' if that is what their marching orders are.
By definition, they are not people who think for themselves. They only think what the puppet masters allow them to think.
That confidence game can be played to a certain extent, but as P. T. Barnum famously observed, it’s not possible to always fool everybody.
What’s to offset? Chicago under 4,000 meters of ice would be a net plus to the rest of the country...
They don't even give a damn if they don't fool all of us. They just need to fool enough to keep their scam running.
So far, they are doing it.
At some point they won’t even be able to fool enough. Their pride will blind them to that point. We think they are coldly calculating. They aren’t; they are blind with rage.
