Alaska's latest volcano eruption
A bit of ash in the air in the northern latitudes
might just start the next ice age. Liberals prepare to change sides to global coolilng. Helms A-Lee! http://www.ktva.com/alaska/ci_4381772 he Alaska Volcano Observatory has increased it level of concern for Fourpeaked Volcano to code Yellow. It previously had NO warning level. This action came as a result of weekend reports of an unusually large cloud rising 20,000 feet from the Cape Douglas area. Cape Douglas is 80 miles northwest of Kodiak and within the Katmai National Park and Preserve. The AVO now confirms that the source of the large cloud was volcanic. But the exact location of the cloud is not known, yet. Observatory scientists say satellite and radar data suggested a source low on the flank of Fourpeaked Volcano. They anticipate conducting an aerial fly-over for confirmation when weather allows. The observatory says the last volcanic activity at Fourpeaked was probably ten-thousand years ago. |

Um, the difference between the sides on the global warming issue is not liberal vs. conservative, but rather science vs. non-science. Please get your terms right. Thank you. Yes, it's possible that the scientific consensus may change. Right now it's overwhelmingly in one direction - and one potential volcano eruption won't change that. Although if it does blow we'll see a short cooling period like we did after Mt St Helens. http://www.ktva.com/alaska/ci_4381772 Interesting article. //Walt |

I wonder if Neandertals ran around blaming men with fire on the end of the Ice age?

Ice Age? Seems fine to me. I loved that movie though...

I think the Global Warming debate is whether mankind
is a significant factor. Too often scientist use the media to further there own careers. While scientists with opposing viewpoints are ignored and treated like dirt. There is no consensus. It is clear the dominant factor is the sun--not man. With orbital tilt, wobble and other factors being directly related to the amount of sunlight incident on the earth determining the temperature of the earth. Next comes volcano's. It was one of these that caused the Ross Ice shelf to break off--not man. And volcano's have been proven to cause cooling. Do you blame man for causing volcano's? All the land mass on the earth--every continent can fit into the area of the Pacific Ocean with room left over for another South America. That is just the Pacific Ocean. The ocean surface is huge. The influence of man is very minor compared to other factors. The earth will always be either warming or cooling. Since cooling tends to happen more rapidly, we should be thankful the current trend is for warming. If you don't like it, lobby for nuking unstable volcano's to set them going again. A small amout of dust in the air will end global warming. I am not opposed to sensible measures to ensure we don't destroy and pollute our planet. I am opposed to letting the media decide to sensationalize global warming for the Liberal political agenda.

There is absolute consensus. Human beings are a significant contributor, and
it's obvious if you look at the data. All reputable scientists understand that. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Bart" wrote in message ups.com...
