Lubbock, Tx (AP) Undeterred by cooler weather unrelated to the global worldwide catastrophe of global warming brought on by man's reliance on petroleum and coal, these cotton farmers are boring down to soil to plant this year's Texas cotton crop.

Without doing the research myself... can someone tell me what the normal highest temperature is during the year for the area in question?

Inland in the Antarctic, it's mothr freakin' cold in the winter and only freakin' cold in the summer. When airplanes fly in to resupply Antartic stations, they keep the engines running.
On the northern coasts of the Arctic Sea like Barrow, mid-summer temps routinely go above 40F. Mid-summer is a pretty short season up there, though. Further north, it stays cooler, but the ice melts or grows because of wind and water currents.
Sorry, no links for this stuff. It's recollections of my failing memory, so I'd check it before I quoted it.
Hey Liberty, just because you cretins are too lazy to do simple research does not mean the rest of us are.
And, as long as you fellows are telling lies concerning a clear and present danger, you will get your daily dose of Old Rocks, and the rest of us that post real science rather than idiotic talking points.

Some scientists question the tactic and say they should focus instead on perfecting their science, but the researchers who are organizing the effort
It's not like it's just "data". You can actually "see it". Once glaciers are gone, no more cycle of evaporation, condensation, and fresh water. It will be just desert.
Some Republicans call the theory of evaporation "wild speculation".
Glaciers have grown and shrunk before. We know that glaciers result from snow that falls and does not melt year to year. We know that patterns of precititation can and do change. Dust Bowl in 30's. East Coast this winter.[/url]
Lets see, the long sought Northern Passage might be possible if there is a little more melting in the future than in the recent past, yet Greenland is still a huge ice cube. Its kind of hard to believe that during the Medieval Climate Optimum, when vineyards flourished on Greenland, that there was much ice at the northern cap,

Actually when talking about the artic regions most of the glaciers there are not formed from falling snow per se, it just happens that it gets so cold that snow cannot form, I know, crazy, but listen; it gets very cold and all the moisture in the air drops down to ground level and the ice fields actually grow in size, kind of like those old freezers that frost keeps growing and growing till you cannot fit anything into it, and it did not snow in your freezer, so it is just the moisture in the air itself freezes it is also called hoar frost. and sticks to the surfaces and grows. In the artic when it warms up it actually will snow at that time, so the warmer it gets the more snow will fall in the artic region till break-up. (Spring for the lower 48 folks.) but the snow itself is weak and soft while the hoar frost is very hard (if you had an old freezer you know not to chip at the frost because you may very well crack the plastic part of the freezer) so unless the hoar frost continues to grow ontop of the snow, the snow itself will usually melt or drift away. but the hoar frost will stay ten times longer.
Just trying to clairify some errors I hear people make that are for and against global warming.
