Isotope ratios in what? rocks, corals, ice?
How has it been theoretically tied to global temperatures? Are
you talking about the Milutinovic equations? How about the
experimental verification? Don't tell me someone jumped on a
time ship and went back a few million years to check out
the temperatures? How many years have humans been keeping
track of temperature anyway?
The rest deleted as usual. It's too long. Keep it short and
to the point.
