"Somewhere far, far to the south where it is summer, a group of global warming scientists are trapped in the Antarctic ice. If you missed the irony of that situation, it is because much of the mainstream media has glossed over that rather inconvenient bit of hilarity. As an example here is an Associated Press story that avoids mentioning the real mission of the scientists aboard the icebound Russian ship..."

Reported as a nice reenactment of a 100 year old Australian Douglas Mawson's trip down to Antartica by some scientists, the Russian ship MV Akademik Shokalskiy's the goal was to verify global warming. But what they found was thickening ice, not melting ice. They literally got stuck in the ice.
But narry a word by the mainstream media of the outright irony of a global warming expedition that came to a halt in the middle of summer because of increasing ice.
