Is it Global Cooling or Global Warming?

In the 1970's the "experts" were "warning us" of global cooling and the coming of the next ice age.

30 years later, we are being "warned" of global warming and a rise in sea levels of 20 feet (Al Gore).

Global levels of sea ice decreased last year and was cited as further evidence of global warming. However, since September the increase in sea ice has been the fastest change (up or down) since 1979 and is now the same as it was in 1979.

Some interesting perspective from George Will in this article.

Please note the paragraph about Paul Ehrlich and Julian Simon. I've always loved this story...
