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!

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.

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.

Wonder who complained about all those dinosaurs pooping all over the
place making methane in their swamps and all....
