NASA Finds Thickest Parts of Arctic Ice Cap Melting Faster
This interactive illustrates how perennial sea ice has declined from 1980 to 2012. The bright white central mass shows the perennial sea ice while the larger light blue area shows the full extent of the winter sea ice including the average annual sea ice during the months of November, December and January. The data shown here were compiled by NASA senior research scientist Josefino Comiso from NASA's Nimbus-7 satellite and the U.S. Department of Defense's Defense Meteorological Satellite Program.

Who would have thought that something that just looks like...I dunno...an accident or miscalculation, would be the thing that finally puts the global-warming debate to bed. Way to go Admiral. I bet the Koch brothers will be offering you a research fellowship soon.
And, citing NASA?!?
Pfffft. The Admiral scoffs at such scientific research! Those guys can build rocket ships and go to the moon and Mars and stuff....but, they are no match for the Admiral's super-incandescent intellect. Blinding us all with it's brilliance.
