Typically, you're ignoring simple facts. Antarctica is a desert at extremely cold temperatures. Warming in that situation causes more precipitation than was historically the case. In Antarctica's case, the precipitation falls in the form of snow and ice. Other ice sheets in Antarctica that are closer to the equator and therefore already slightly warmer are in fact melting. Several gigantic ones are causing shipping problems for Chile and Argentina. It all depends on where you look.

It has nothing to do with dismissing Antarctica. Or using the "same" fact to "prove" or "disprove" GW. You're looking for a simple verification or falsification of a complex theory, and there never will be one. That isn't how science works.
