I suspect it's the Piers Corbyn approach. By the time it's
apparent what you've predicted couldn't possibly happen,
everybody has long since forgotten about it.

I think Lawrence has gone to ground.


In the meantime, the NSIDC has called the summer low. Second lowest in
the satellite series:

Blimey Paul its not a foxhunt and there is more than one model. Of
course they all will show a vey low level of arctic ice level in what
has been as far as any accuate records show. a lean few years. Howevr
all is well temps have flattened and sea levels fallen. *It's funny f
cold fusion is finally acheieved and energy revolutionised its all
going to be fantastically hunky dory as well as very interesting.- Hide quoted text -

?? Could someone interpret this post please? And could you, Lawrence,
now try to answer the question that you've been asked, instead of
constantly trying to dodge it?- Hide quoted text -

Even though I asked you to explain this on the other discussion, after
answering your "criticisms", you still avoid explaining what you have
said.


Why do you think Arctic sea ice will return to the 1979-2008 mean in
the next decade? I don't think any scientist agrees with you.
Certainly no-one in working in the area of the cryosphere does. I'm
not the only one waiting to read your explanation with interest.- Hide quoted text -

Can I go now Sir?- Hide quoted text -

Good that you've returned, I respect that (took some doing, but I do
respect it) but no you can't. I've got no idea what you mean by that
answer and "natural cycles" are just a cop-out. What "natural cooling
cycles", or combinations of them are going to lead to summer Arctic
sea ice recovering? *Don't dodge by trying to sidetrack. Tell us what
you mean.- Hide quoted text -

was seen as an issue.

Complete avoidance. To quote "natural factors" is a complete cop-out.
"natural factors" doesn't mean anything and all you are doing is
avoiding answering a question *yet again*. Why post nonsense like
"Arctic sea ice will return to average in the next few years" if you
have no idea why it will, except that you rather hope it will happen t
justify your beliefs. To believe something you've got to have a better
reason than "I think it will". Or maybe, in your case, that's enough.
Who knows?
