idk much about global warming or anything, but just today something was announced. At TodaysHotNews.com , it reported : Arctic Ice Shelf Broke Off Canadian Island - December 30, 2006 - The New York Times: The breaking of the 41-square-mile shelf of floating ice appeared to be a result of unusual Arctic warmth in 2005 on top of a longer-term warming trend.

A sign of a doofuss...
It is a sign that we'd better learn to fly seaplanes! :-P
Don't worry. No one gets out of life alive.

I believe it could be my fault; I took my 4 liter Ford Explorer for a run yesterday!!

My fault too. I drove my three litre Toyota 80km to the flying field and back so I could fly my environmentally friendly electric airplane. :-\

Electric plane!!! All that ozone you are spreading, My nitro's smell sweet and I love the roar. My glue dries faster now also. I can build more planes twice as fast as before. The Arabs need those big ice cubes. A few more chunks like this tow them to the desert and turn it into a greenhouse. Doc Ferguson
Did you know Bob, that in the middle ages (that's around 1550AD for the plebs, and not long after the USA was "discovered" by Christopher Columbus (Go on do a google search if you like..its true) it was so warm in the UK that the French complained to their King that the English were producing better wine than them!!
Nuffin' to do with flying I know, but us Poms are getting clobbered with an enviromental road tax, just for owning a SUV, that you guys would describe as a "compact"
Good Grief Geoff; 80 km? Over here that's like driving to another country!

We had a chile cookoff yesterday. The local methane content is quite high today. I guess I'm partly to blame as well...
