Nice pictures. The data shows that the Arctic sea-ice minimum is getting
smaller. could be that global Warming is the reason.

Careful with that axe Eugene, there are only eight months
in the animation - not enough to make longer term pronouncements.

Yes, Mr. 4bush should be more careful with his cutting implements.
In case he missed the longer term view, he should take another look at the
first graph on the web page referenced above. You know, the one labeled "Sea
ice extent trend for the Northern Hemisphere". He night have noticed the data
begins in 1975 and continues thru 2004.

Is that your point?

No point, just trying to broaden understanding.

I think the point is that the Earth is warming and one indication of this is
a decline in the extent of sea-ice at the end of the melt season in the Arctic.
