Okay. Better ;-).

Anyway, this scientist asks good questions, such as why Why sea-ice has diminished in the Arctic since 1978, [but] has grown by 8% in the Southern Ocean? This is how science works. It may well be that CO2 emissions are at least a contributing cause to global warming. The mechanism by which it occurs is well-understood. What is not known is if there are other factors as well.

Glad you cleared that up. I was going to reply that obviously SOMEONE hasn't had their coffee this morning!

No offense taken. I was indeed undercaffeinated.
This scientist is at least looking at other possible causes outside of what has become the consensus.
Besides the increase in solar output couldn't we also hold the EPA responsible for forcing a reduction in particulate emissions and allowing more sunlight to reach the surface of the planet?
