I've noticed that al the 'usual suspects' the BBC, Guardian,
Independent and of course the son of a affluent professional marxist;
now whats his name ..ah yes the boy Ed Milliband and associates, are
all keeping very quiet about the remarkable recovery of the Arctic sea
ice.
I'm not too sure if Alastair and Dawlish posted-they usualy do if the
ice news is grim; but if never ceases to amaze me how all those that
are concerned that we heading for melt down stay silent when the
disaster is postponed.

The BBC are notorious for this but I digress the Arctic ice is
rebounding with seemingly,enthusiasm.

Just thought I'd make this point.


Ice coverage is still only about 75% of normal and is also much thinner than
normal. As the Stock Market is so much in the news, I'll borrow a phrase
from that and say this "rebound" is merely a "dead cat bounce" and the
decline will continue.
