You are correct. Now use the same logic on arctic ice and gw in General. You can shoot holes in that too.

Your amusement may be premature.

Your argument is well stated and is not hysterical with paragraphs of name calling................however your Scientific American study is filled with these words. So your conclusion may be premature.

wary..........pried open a long-standing debate............why the community is uncomfortable with this result.............the authors predict that the trend of ice mass gain could reverse in about 20 to 30 years(underline by me)

The IPCC has estimated that meltwater from Antarctica could raise sea levels by between 2.2 to 5.5 inches by 2100. But the new findings suggest that Antarctica is currently not contributing to sea-level rise at all but helping to check it by stashing away 0.23 millimeter of fresh water every year.

In conclusion....Before plunging into the debate about sea-level rise, other scientists called for more careful scrutiny of findings from this study.

That was NOT the conclusion from the genius named Zax, was it?

Did Scientific American actually confuse the use of "affect" and "effect"?

I'm thinking a grammatical peer review is called for.
