Sorry I can't just get the image to show rather than a link. Using the HTML image notation didn't work right.

1. Rebound? That looks like an acceleration to me.

2. Well yes, but all I'm saying is that the latest movement of the graph is upward.
In no way am I implying that our troubles are over.

3. Please look at the picture you linked to again
That tiny little tail pointing upward is just like the one right after 2010 and it fits right in with the overall downward plunge.

Are you encouraged because it's happening in the summer? Otherwise I just don't see what you're seeing.

4. And we're arguing over this -- because???
I know that the ice is soon to disappear.

I know that overall the trend is downward and picking up speed.

I did not state that I was "encouraged" by this latest upward tic in the graph.

I know in the grand scheme of things that it is irrelevant.

I was merely stating the observation that the graph did indeed tic upward.

Are we done now? :eyes:

5. Just trying to agree on the facts
Sure, we can quit now.
