   Today, April 11 I have no Sky temperature data from my parking lot. I spent   
   the evening in a motel in the Sayward Valley. In the morning there was frost   
   on the roof of my car. Late evening April 10 we went down to Kelsey Bay, on   
   the Salmon River. The evening air was cool but not frigid. We spotted new   
   ice beside the road. There is new fallen snow on all mountains down the   
   spine of Vancouver Island. These observations conform to previous days   
   measurements of the IR or IR Raman temperature of the sky.   
      
   Such observations are comfortable to those who are old and mature enough to   
   remember climate cycles. Those Communists who were squealing the 'glaciers   
   are melting' are again proven wrong. Modern "climate science" is not   
   science, it is the denial of science. Likewise 'modern glaciology' the   
   science of glaciers, is not science it is the denial of science.
