When you predict that the end of the world (as we know it) is coming
then you are labelled as a crackpot (or a Chicken Little)-!

Which is fine until the sky falls !


I first heard about methane clathrates was about five years ago,


You should have hung out with more chemists !


Or glaciologists (et al.). I was peripherally involved in a paper
on the release of methane clathrates due to the depressurization
caused by the removal of the Laurentide ice sheet -- in 1987.
Methane clathrates were known to the climate community well before 2000.
