"And how old it the earth?" Eh? Do not understand your question.... "The issue remains that the AP has identified itself as unreliable." Eh????????? My link was to an online article posted on Physorg.com: Space and Earth science : June 27, 2006 First Compilation of Tropical Ice Cores Shows Abrupt Global Climate Shift physorg.com (Which reported on the solid evidence noting that the Earth experienced a very sharp cool-down a little greater then 5,000 years ago... and a very sharp warm-up over the most recent 50 years.) No direct connection to some 'beauty contest' run by Associated Press, reporting on the opinions of a small sample of climatologists who have been able to see Gore's movie.

For Posterity, let's look at what some of the "innocent" prisoners released from Guantanamo have done: Released Prisoners from Guantanamo Maulvi Abdul Ghaffar, captured in Afghanistan in December 2001, was one of the twenty-three prisoners released from Camp Delta in late January 2004. After his release, he joined the remnants of the Taliban and was killed in a gunfight on September 26, 2004.[55] Abdullah Mehsud, also captured in Afghanistan in December 2001 after surrendering to Abdul Rashid Dostum, masterminded the kidnapping of two Chinese engineers in Pakistan's South Waziristan region as well as returning to his position as an Al-Qaeda field commander.[56] Mehsud has also claimed responsibility for the bombing at Islamabad's Marriott Hotel in October 2004. The blast injured seven people, including a U.S. diplomat, two Italians and the Pakistani prime minister's chief security officer. Airat Vakhitov and Rustam Akhmyarov, two Russian nationals captured in Afghanistan in December 2001 and released from Guantánamo in late 2002, were arrested by Russian authorities on August 30, 2005. The two former detainees were arrested in Moscow for allegedly preparing a series of attacks in Russia. According to authorities, Vakhitov was using a local human rights group as cover for his activities.[57] en.wikipedia.org
