What is an "ice age?"

Dex, do you believe the magnetic reversals seen in the sea floor plates is caused by the plates spinning or by the Earth's magnetic field flipping?
 
He's not good at that you know. He brought up an article from Jeff Masters (Weather Underground) that he claimed showed that "highly correlated balloon and satellite data showed no warming". Only problem was that was not what it said. And Jeff Masters is hardly a whack job denier.

That article didn't come clean about the highly correlated nature of the data, but that's the slant of the article. The article admits what I've claimed, that in 2005 when atmospheric temperature readings from satellites and balloons both showed NO WARMING in the atmosphere, the TIPPYs decided to FUDGE the data, which oh by the way has not warmed since the FUDGING either...

Didn't warm before 2005
Didn't warm after 2005

The only time the atmosphere "warmed" was when the TIPPYs FUDGED the data in 2005.
 
How do you explain alternating magnetic stripes on the sea floor?


Give me a link about that. I thought the switching magnetic direction stuff came mostly from land. I KNOW some of it did. And land can spin like SA has.,..
 
I thought the "theory" was that the fields reverse every 100 million years or so.

That graphic suggests every 20 years or so. Obviously, it is a graphic to make a point, so 20 years is obviously not right. How often do these strips on the ocean floor suggest a field reversal?

Nope.

Nope.

So 100k to 1 mil years...

OK

Still not ready to accept, but the ocean floor is a lot more convincing that the land based claims.

So, the options appear to be, the pole flips every 100k to 1 million years, which explains the magnetic stripes, versus your explanation that the stripes were caused by...........?

Backing off your claim that the magnetic field does not alternate?
 
Possibly, but it is also my duty to be diligent before I do. There are land based claims. Those claims are far less convincing than the sea floor stripes.
 
I do. I just do not parrot and jump to conclusions.

You do not.
