Louis posted a 2007 article on Bolivia's Chacaltaya glacier. He complains that I am uninformed, but does he realize that glacier finally disappeared in 2009 - with no catastrophic effects? Moreover, it isn't even clear that its melting away was caused by global warming. You can all inform yourselves about it at wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chacaltaya Paddy wrote: "It is time for some deep thinking; proper discussion of history and science ... [clip] This whole question needs serious discussion - not ad hominem attacks ..." Paddy, I agree with you. Let's hope one day the left can discuss this issue in a rational and civilized way.
