Antarctica and its Volcanism and Vostok
That Antarctica has multiple volcanic domes, and the temperature and winds this past December have broken all previous records.

Things look as if they are heating up. It is NOT global warming that is melting the ice sheets...it is volcanic activity.

The Great Flood?

Two British researchers contend that a volcano violently erupted around 2,000 years ago and blew a large hole through the ice sheet in West Antarctic at around the year 207 B.C., and scientists confirm it was the largest volcanic eruption in Antarctica over the last 10,000 years.

South Pole’s Record Breaking Week…(Corrected!)

Posted on December 31, 2011 by mattl

Here’s more on South Pole Stations record breaking week of weather (Courtesy of South Pole Meteorology Office):

December 24th: The peak wind speed of 29 kts/33 mph broke the previous record of 28 kts/32 mph set in 1996.
December 24th: The temperature of -13.3°C/8.1°F broke the previous maximum temperature record of -15.7°C/3.7°F set in 1984.
December 25th: The temperature of -12.3°C/9.9°F broke the previous maximum temperature record of -17.2°C/1.0°F set in 1978.
December 25th: The temperature of -12.3°C/9.9°F broke the record for the all-time maximum temperature at South Pole. The previous record of -13.6°C/7.5°F was set on December 27, 1978.
December 30th: The peak wind speed of 25 kts/29 mph broke the previous record of 21 kts/24 mph set in 1989.

I think weather patterns have definitely changed. I am NOT a proponent of the global warming (Go Green) fad. But, there definitely seem to be changes going on.

I think abnormal weather is not that big of deal, until it happens globally, and annually, which is what we have seen the last few years. BUT, I am not an alarmist either, so, as you can tell, I am on the fence concerning all this. Especially when ALL the global weather data has been fucked with.

Re: Antarctica and its Volcanism and Vostok
Also a big theory behind earthquakes is that the polar cap melt is causing "glacier melt rebound effect. Water is heavier than ice and the ocean floor is adjusting to the ice weight from the ice meltage (if there's such a word?) Thus causing some of last years earthquakes in the Pacific region. Especially Aleutian Island chain and maybe NZ/Kermedac locations

Even if all the ice on Antarctica melted it would raise the ocean level 200 feet hardly a global flood. One volcano or even a chain of them would only melt a fraction of the ice.
I think theres more to worry about the methane leaking from under the arctic. But they rather blame mans coal plants, lol.
