which are witnessed periodically.

Alaska’s Hubbard Glacier still advancing, but at a slower pace
By Climatologist Cliff Harris
30 Jun 09 – It appears to be continuing its advance into the fjord and
should eventually (maybe as early as next year, but almost certainly
within the next thirty or forty years) wrap itself around Gilbert Point
and turn the fjord into a glacier formed lake.

Alaska's Glaciers Are Growing
By Dennis T. Avery - 28 Oct 08 – “Alaska’s glaciers grew this year, after
shrinking for most of the last 200 years. The reason? Global temperatures
dropped over the past 18 months. The global mean annual temperature has
been declining recently because the solar wind thrown out by the sun has
retreated to its smallest extent in at least 50 years.

Climate change chicanery
Less ice in the Arctic in 1893 than today
14 Sep 08 – Lewis Gordon Pugh tried to paddle a kayak to the Pole
to demonstrate the vanishing Arctic ice. While still 600 miles short of
his goal, he met with ice so thick that he had to turn back. Conveniently
forgotten, is that in 1893 the Arctic was so ice-free that a Norwegian
explorer was able to kayak above 82 degrees north, 100 miles nearer
he Pole.
