   Work it out:  If you could reach out & grab one end of ship,   
   start pulling it out of the water, what would happen to the   
   other end?   
      
   Work it out.   
      
   HINT:  The answer is "Exactly how initial observations would   
   have revealed."   
      
   So it really is a great analogy, as your idiotic climate   
   hysterics glimpses only a tiny sliver of the Holocene,   
   erasing any & all long term data.

   Wow. So you read with your own eyes EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE posted   
   by me and actually managed to gaslight yourself into disbelieving   
   yourself, and instead go with something you just made up.   
      
   Typical.
