The reason the North Pole may be ice free this summer is La Nina. Last time we had a lasting La Nina like now, we got a nice summer here in the...
Brian, I was reading all of your Ice Core links above and found nothing new of interest. One was saying: "The ice core record from Vostok,...
I don´t know exactly what you refer to, but there was a documentary produced where the ice cores were discussed, called "The Great Global Warming...
Yes, it is strange, since we got TV the whole world has changed. Or did we not know enough what was going on before we got TV? Here is a...
As I mentioned above, we have the same engines as IPS/500 but with Aquamatic. When i compare our performance figures with the Tiara 3900 Sovran,...
