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.

Yes Gareth, the same BBC that gave us is latest production of Oliver
Twist casting a black girl as Nancy. Ideology over reality every
time.

It wouldn't occur to you that she might have been the best actress at the

Quite right historicity is not a science. All the black slaves not
exported to Jamaica in time for the new Wilberforce laws earlier that
century would have been absorbed into the mainstream by Victorian
times?

Besides which whoever played it, the real life model would have been
so covered in soot and street grime that it wouldn't have been obvious
except on a BBC production.

In the meantime the lack of scientific talent at the Blue Peter output
end of things wouldn't have got lost entirely.

It's just that the facts the same scientists who brought us news of a
carbon dioxide increase of 70 parts per million also brought us news
of a mid day background level and news of a fall of 400 parts per
million of oxygen molecules (presumably apart from the CO2?) though
from watching either BBC, ITV C4 or 5, you'd still be ignorant.

Even reading the churlish nonentities such as that amoeba: Dawlish,
you would gain little insight.

Those two overlooked vital signs require the introduction of an
inverse law and that could get scientific.- Hide quoted text -

your outcome stats of 12.5% accuracy since April don't do you many
favours!

Thanks Lawrence, just keep those points of view and other information
coming.
I'm not entirely convinced that the planet is heading for disaster either,
despite undisputable warming.

The "disaster" is a nice straw man, but I'm not sure anybody believes
that no summer Arctic Sea ice at all will be a disaster.

Try telling that to the Polar Bears!

No Dave it didn't occurr to me that she was the best actress for the
job, not in a million years. Taking your logic a step further, how
about Hugh Grant playing the part of Nelson Mandella, now that would
cause riots amongst the Guardinista's .

As for

"I don't recall the line in the novel "Bill Sikes' girlfriend, the

Silly me I forgot the novel Winston Twista was set against the
backdrop of the Notting Hill Carnival..

Nah. What they'll do is adapt. They'll take to sunning themselves in
the summer, outside the Macdonalds in Churchill and feeding on the
leftovers.

Didn't Ben Kingsley play Gandhi? I must have forgotten the ensuing
riots.

Morgan Freeman as God!?? (Bruce Almightly)
Alanis Morissette as God!?? (Dogma)
George Burns as God!?? (Oh God!)
Not to mention...Joe *******i, Dawlish, Weatherlawyer.....and then to top it
all...the months of June/July/August acting as Summer 2008!!??

It's mad, I tell ya, mad...!

Morgan Freeman as God!?? (Bruce Almightly)
Alanis Morissette as God!?? (Dogma)
George Burns as God!?? (Oh God!)

Didn't you know that gods don't exist?

So it doesn't matter who plays it as they are playing something that is
non-existent anyway. No problem methinks.

Agreed about the Summer of 2008, what a load of pretence that was.

I'm of the same opinion, Nick, but the post was in the context of fictional
characters and who played them, was it not? Anyway, on that basis why make a
comment about Summer of 2008 which itself was practically fictituous in the
context of what we hope a summer will be!!! ;-)

(what a way to go off-topic!)
