"U.S. Scientist Sees New Ice Age Coming" - When did this title appear, who was its proponent, and when was the new ice age predicted to appear? Oh, and are we at war with Eurasia or Eastasia?

It was published in 1971 by Victor Cohn in the Washington Post. The ice age was predicted by Dr. S.I. Rasool, and was slated to happen between 2021 and 2031. http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/washingtonpost_historical/access/144703752.html?dids=144703752:144703752&FMT=ABS&FMTS=ABS:AI&fmac=&date=Jul+9%2C+1971&author=By+Victor+CohnWashington+Post+Staff+Writer&desc=U.S.+Scientist+Sees+New+Ice+Age+Coming Sep 30 07, 11:46 AM

That's correct. Also, "NASA scientist James E. Hansen, who has publicly criticized the Bush administration for dragging its feet on climate change and labeled skeptics of man-made global warming as distracting 'court jesters,' appears in a 1971 Washington Post article that warns of an impending ice age within 50 years." http://www.washingtontimes.com/article/20070919/NATION02/109190067 The government has to keep us focused on either Eurasia or Easta....I mean, fire or ice. http://www.puc.edu/Faculty/Bryan_Ness/frost1.htm I suppose I should apologize for asking trivia and quoting poetry when I have the ulterior motive of making a political statement. It was the crying Indian commercial question that got me going. Sep 30 07, 8:42 PM
