Thanks for the tour Thanks for the fun! September 21 by funkan (106 found) That was one of the coolest caches we have done so far! This was our first time exploring the library.

Middle Daughter and I have never been to the campus before, and we had a great time exploring this beautiful library. Thanks! April 26, 2006 by SecondChance (146 found) What a fantastic cache. I graduated from UW in '96 and while doing this cache I felt like I was doing research for a class again! Thanks for a great cache.

18 GLOBAL WARMING MYTH? REALITY? "...(P)opulation growth and redistribution, rather than actual climate change, is largely responsible for the observed increases in the frequency and severity of most 'natural disasters'." Randall S. Cerveny, Arizona State University In "Shattered Consensus: The True State of Global Warming" There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities." Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2001 "I am of the opinion that this is one of the greatest hoaxes ever perpetrated on the American people." Climate models bear about as much relation to reality as astrology. Global warming is not a conqueror to kneel before but a challenge to rise to. A challenge we must rise to. "We are getting close to a tipping point, despite the fact that most people barely notice the warming yet. William M. Gray, Colorado State University Melanie Phillips, Daily Mail. October 30, 2006 Senator Joe Lieberman James Hansen, NASA's chief climate scientist, Time Magazine, April 3, 2006 "I cannot stress this enough we are not in a position to confidently attribute past climate change to carbon dioxide or to forecast what the climate will be in the future. Richard Lindzen, MIT, Wall Street Journal, June 11, Antarctica is likely to be the world's only habitable continent by the end of this century if global warming remains unchecked. Professor Sir David King, Government chief scientist; The Independent, 2 May "This small warming is likely a result of the natural alterations in global ocean currents which are driven by ocean salinity variations. Ocean circulation variations are as yet little understood. Human kind has little or nothing to do with the recent temperature changes. We are not that influential." There is now clear evidence that the mean annual temperature at the Earth's surface, averaged over the entire globe, has been increasing in the past 200 years. There is also clear evidence that the abundance of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere has increased over the same period.
