While cleaning out our house, we found our long lost wedding album.

Here is a first scanned photo of Gary Nancy, Ian and Fred August '83.

 

Subject: Fwd: Frightening Report on Global Warming

>>> The Arctic Ocean is warming up, icebergs are growing scarcer and in some 
places the seals are finding the water too hot, according to a report to the 
Commerce Department yesterday from Consulafft, at Bergen, Norway
>>> 
>>> Reports from fishermen, seal hunters, and explorers all point to a radical 
change in climate conditions and hitherto unheard-of temperatures in the Arctic 
zone. Exploration expeditions report that scarcely any ice has been met as far 
north as 81 degrees 29 minutes.
>>> Soundings to a depth of 3,100 meters showed the gulf stream still very warm. 
Great masses of ice have been replaced by moraines of earth and stones, the 
report continued, while at many points well known glaciers have entirely 
disappeared.
>>> Very few seals and no white fish are found in the eastern Arctic, while vast 
shoals of herring and smelts which have never before ventured so far north, are 
being encountered in the old seal fishing grounds. Within a few years it is 
predicted that due to the ice melt the sea will rise and make most coastal 
cities uninhabitable.

>>> I apologize, I neglected to mention that this report was from November 2, 
1922, as reported by the AP and published in The Washington Post; 93+ years ago.
