Syl, here's some background on methane. Note how it is 21-times the greenhouse gas that CO2 emissions are. Why are you not concerned with methane if you are so concerned about global warming? It is counter intuitive.

This gives some background on the historical temperature ranges found through core samples from Greenland. It's interesting that the temperature range has been about 15-degrees centigrade for the past 100,000 years, and we're currently on the low end of that range.

Syl, I didn't watch a movie or read USA today to get my information on global warming. I read well thought out scientific journalism. There is more to the story than what Al Gore is presenting, and I'm just trying to help people become aware. Don't take it personally that we are on different sides of this issue.
