It's coming ... prepare. I listen to public radio every day as background noise. Today I heard for the first time a caller (she was very upset) making the argument that CO2 causes global warming (the old argument) AND, wait for it, GLOBAL WARMING CAUSES GLOBAL COOLING. And of course, the evil energy companies knew this. They knew that their product would produce global cooling ... and therefore we are more addicted to their product than EVAH. I think that the evolution in intelligence has gone about as far as we can tolerate. At least someone is listening to them.......

. A 22.4 m-long shallow firn core was extracted during the 2006/2007 field season from coastal Adélie Land. Annual layer counting based on subannual analyses of δ18O and major chemical components was combined with 5 reference years associated with nuclear tests and non-retreat of summer sea ice to build the initial ice-core chronology (1946–2006), stressing uncertain counting for 8 years. We focus here on the resulting δ18O and accumulation records. With an average value of 21.8 ± 6.9 cm w.e. yr−1, local accumulation shows multi-decadal variations peaking in the 1980s, but no long-term trend. Similar results are obtained for δ18O, also characterised by a remarkably low and variable amplitude of the seasonal cycle. The ice-core records are compared with regional records of temperature, stake area accumulation measurements and variations in sea-ice extent, and outputs from two models nudged to ERA (European Reanalysis) atmospheric reanalyses: the high-resolution atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM), including stable water isotopes ECHAM5-wiso (European Centre Hamburg model), and the regional atmospheric model Modèle Atmosphérique Régional (AR). A significant linear correlation is identified between decadal variations in δ18O and regional temperature. No significant relationship appears with regional sea-ice extent. www.the-cryosphere.net/11/343/2017/

Are you suggesting that reversion to norm is not the norm. Not normally,

Considering the source, Mr. Sig, you should be proud! Very proud!

That's the most straight forward explanation I've seen to date.
