The Mind Boggles
In two separate articles in two Australian online papers today, there was a story about some young yahoos "navigating the North West passage for the first time" to look for evidence of the catastrophe of global warming. Being one to shoot my mouth off, I had to send a message to both websites correcting them on their errors. Those errors are:
1) The first person to navigate the North West Passage was the Norwegian explorer, Roald Amundson, way back in 1903 to 1906.
2) Trees have been found on Ellesmere Island, Canada's northernmost island, indicating beyond all doubt that the Canadian Arctic was once much warmer than it is today.
I suggested to both papers that they issue a correction and an apology for misleading their readers. Of course, neither website/paper had a comments section, so I had to search for "contact" information and I sent my rather curt suggestion that way.
Such is the state of the lamestream media today.

Naughty you! Slamming "An Inconvenient Fact" in their warmist faces! I'm sure we both know you shouldn't bother waiting for either a public apology or a public correction. Warmists don't do either of those. That would be an act of integrity, a characteristic as absent with them as is Global Warming in reality.
There was a website set up by the travelling heroes, too. I visited it, but it was mostly in Swedish, or something, but the comments were from Anglos. I posted a comment, but, up till now it hasn't been published. Doubt if it will be.
On the website there's a video of them visiting some Inuit village and fawning over, and going all gaga about, the noble native.
Hmmm, were those Rousseau "noble savage" wearing animal skins or Western manufactured clothing? Were they using spears and kayaks for hunting and fishing or Western manufactured motorboats, rifles and fishing tackle? Ditto fires in igloos or heaters in shacks built of Western manufactured lumber, etc.?
I'd love to see a bunch of these "noble savage"-loving "progressives" try to live for just a week using traditional "noble savage" stone-age implements. I say a week because those "progressives" could survive for a week without food. Any longer and they'd of course starve to death.
Well, they did have what remained of a butchered narwhal carcass on the ground with blood all around.
Of course, that's just proof of the Noble Savages living in harmony with nature. I might have to go back and see if there was a metal boat with a gas powered engine attached to it on the shore.
I suppose Narwhals are not endangered by the shrinking polar icecaps caused by human produced global warming, unless, of course, they are killed by a non-Inuit hunter.
