Illuminated by science -

Those of you in Reno should check out my letter to the editor in this weeks Reno News and Review in response to the column Right Hook. Right Hook's author, Mike Lafferty, wrote a piece on global warming. In that article he cited the advance of the Hubbard Glacier as an apparent contradiction to global warming. (Must all glaciers be receeding simulataneously at the same rate to support the idea of global warming?) He also compared glacial melting to ice in a soft drink glass. Apparently he doesn't realize that there is land underneath Antarctica and most other places covered by glaciers.
