Here a start:

Antarctic researchers have to build stations on skiis because the stations get buried under the 5 feet more snow a year: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/4693409.stm

19 May 2005 - According to a new study published in the online edition of Science, the East Antarctic Ice Sheet gained about 45 billion tons of ice between 1992 and 2003. The ice sheets are several kilometers thick in places, and contain about 90% of the world's ice.

Here's an article which tells about the increasing ice in Antarctica that then goes on to blame global warming for the increased ice. The excuse is that greater moisture from global warming in the other 10% of the world's ice is causing an increase in the 90% of the world's ice in Antarctica! LOL! Then they go on to talk about the ice calving in West Antarctica, where only a tiny portion of the total Antarctic ice is located. Of course, that would be like the entire United States being covered with ice which is getting thicker, except for Oregon, which is getting thinner, and declaring that the United States is losing ice! http://www.nature.com/news/2005/050516/full/050516-10.html

I can get some official documents, but I'll have to get them back from my son-in-law.

The tide gages upon which the claim of "rising sea level due to global warming" is based are fixed to the earth's crust, which is sinking. The entire North Atlantic shore is sinking. That's why when you look at a map of the Atlantic, you see all those estuaries. They are river valleys that sank.

If Algore who invented the Internet had any idea how fast this network is flying through the Universe, well, Earth doesn't count. At least to those that get the math.
