Gee whiz.... I don't know... but let me take a guess...

Why the bloody hell do you have to GUESS? Scientists all know why.

Perhaps glaciers shrink during warm interglacial periods in
Earth's history like we are lucky to be in right now.....

Oopps! Wrong guess. Try again?

I doubt
that they would grow unless the world starts to head back into another
glacial period, or another Little Ice Age...

Ooops! Another wrong guess. Again?

maybe a combination of a
nicely warming world, and in some cases, sublimation.

Yes, and scientists know why that happened and is happening. You
ay they are wrong: so..... tell us why.
