The problem is that the ice is MELTING. Do you understand that? MELTING. What ice is there is rising as the ocean water levels increase.
A quote from Faux News.
"Upside-down "rivers" of warm ocean water may be one of the causes of Antarctica's ice shelves breaking up, leading to a rise in sea levels. A new study suggests that, in the past, increases in Antarctic sea ice in colder climates may have contributed to ice ages."
Read that a couple of times, maybe it'll sink in. The sentence is referring to TWO very different events. The ice is melting, got it?

Hey Conrad,
Where in N Illinois are you?
I grew up is S Illinois (Newton) and lived in Rockford from '91-'98. Still go back to Rockford a week each summer to visit friends. Might have to swing by & say "Hi" & buy you a beer.

Exactly. Breathe deep, the eye of Sauron is upon this thread.
Joking aside, why is ther such a large percentage of active members on this site from the same 2 states... Illinois and Virginia?
What happened to the censoring software on this site that is suppose to replace four letter words like the title of this thread with “****”?
Joking aside, why is ther such a large percentage of active members on this site from the same 2 states... Illinois and Virginia? I actually check both states. Grew up in Illinois and live in Virginia. Most of my family is still in central IL so I go back for visits, but do my best to avoid winter visits there!
Winter here is a joke. First forecast of snow and everyone freaks out. Never seen a response like I’ve seen here to the possibility of snow, despite if we actually get any or not.

Carlin only came up with 7 dirty words, but trust me, there are 8 and the title of this thread is the eighth one!
To someone used to heavier winters and can drive in inclement weather, this basically is a nothing by comparison. However, you can be the best driver in the world during those events and get taken out by a maroon at any time which is why I don't travel whilst it's snowing/icing here.
As to the software, I'll have to take a look and see what's up with that. I think I've seen the settings somewhere around. Ok, I've relocated the settings and it's a manual process to add them in. With that being said, I'd take a really dim view (Jimmymac) on going back and forth adding them in manually. A bad humour that would put me in. However, I will research George Carlin and his57 words and make sure they're there.
