Hi elmatador,

Heard about glaciation? (KJC isn't going to like that)

Okay, I give up. Why wouldn't I like that? <g>

I think that is a myth. Interglacial periods last maybe a hundred thousand years, though they gradually get colder with the temperature peak early on. However, there is no proof that the Pleistocene glaciation isn't complete. After all we don't know what caused it in the first place to any convincing degree. There are some theories. Our throwing lots of CO2 in the atmosphere will certainly stop it ever coming back anyway. Unless we trigger some strong negative feedback in the process. In the end very little is yet known about how the climate system operates. I would only be trying to model a a century or few decades at most.
