With opinionated but ignorant people to work on, Germany's 1930s
National Socialists came within a whisker of world domination. So next
time wise-up before you speak up.

Pratt!

I think most would agree with you there. He claims to be a scientist,
although untraceable, he doesn't even have the receipt!



I wonder if some bright chap out there can wise me up. Is the increase in
CO2 caused by the release of this gas as the oceans warm up, or is the
increase in the temperature of the Oceans caused by the man made CO2.

Incidentally, is it accurate to say that Greenland coastal waters which
are now tundra sustained a Viking grass based agrarian colony in the 4
century AD?

There was a Viking colony which hung on in Greenland, mainly between 11th
and 14th centuries, cannot remember the exact date a ship found the last
inhabitants gone
But in the early history of Iceland they regularly supported themselves with
grain produced on the island. When I was there in the 1980s there was only
one farm on the island that could hope to combine oats for grain, and that
not every year
