Mighty Lake Superior Mystifies Scientists

MARQUETTE, Mich. (July 29) - As the research boat bobs up and down on
gray, choppy Lake Superior, Michigan Tech University chemist Noel
Urban and two students drop a metal cylinder over the side to retrieve
a water sample from the bottom.

They are measuring carbon dioxide content -- an unspectacular
statistic by itself, yet an important piece of a highly complex
puzzle.

"It helps us develop a model that can say what's going to happen as
the lake warms up," Urban says.

Plenty of people are wondering the same thing.

Something seems amiss with mighty Superior, the deepest and coldest of
the Great Lakes, which together hold nearly 20 percent of the world's
fresh surface water.

It's the Chinese. Wal-Mart and Halliburton teamed up to ship another
U.S. asset to the PRC, this time via a through-the-earth pipeline. The
deal was brokered by Dicque Cheney. China will run the water through its
non-existent sewage treatment plants, bottle it, and ship it back to us
for drinking.- Hide quoted text -

That's almost as good as "the western aquifer has gone dry, and that's
sucking all the water from Lake Superior"

Everybody sees some things change in a lifetime. In fact, those of us
more than just a few decades old have seen more changes in the world
in the last 50 years than there were in the previous few hundred, and
one change we're witnessing is a climate change. Never mind whether
it's man-made, (we won't know one way or the other until it's too
late) but it's real enough and the effects will be the save whether
it's caused by sunspots or 2-stroke outboard exhaust.
