I'd like to add one more thing to that. The topic at hand is global sea ice, right? Polar ice caps? Greenland? Just how long have we even been paying attention to the ice volumes? And of that time, how long have we had the capabilities to measure such volumes?

It annoys me when mankind looks at just a tiny fraction of a story and then jumps to conclusions.
