#1 If you believe the earth's core is millions of degrees hotter than it is I imagine it is an easy step to imagine the polar ice vaporizing that quickly. Gore is a confused fellow dazzled by his own awards and bull$hit.

#2 New computer modeling

A rantburg deep cover agent has managed to get the source code of these models. Here it is.

procedure model_version1 is
begin
put_line("Polar ice will melt. We are all doomed"):
end model_version1;

procedure model_version2 is
begin
put_line("Polar ice will melt. We are all doomed");
put_line("unless you deposit your savings in my swiss bank account");
end model_version2;

#7 The London Times and other news outlets have called Gore on this BS.

Unfortunately, the utterly false melting Himalayan glaciers threaten water supply for 1 bilion people claim still goes unchallenged.

FYI, melting glaciers will increase winter and spring river flows when Himalayan rivers are at low water, and reduce summer flows when the rivers are in flood due to the Monsoon.

#8 I am kind of hoping Gore will vanish in 5-7 months.
