I've never ice fished before, but I have heard stories.  Those stories were from a time when the ice was thick enough to drive a car on.

With the warm winters, are we looking forward to an ice age?

don't know whats really going on with the weather, but it sure wasnt a normal winter in the u.p. of michigan.

The earth has been coming out of the last ice age for about 10,000 years now. It is continuing to warm up to it's normal temperature where there is no ice at either pole during it's summer. All the liberal "earth huggers" that think they can stop natural global processes are hoping everyone is a gullable rube so you'll give them your hard earned money. Volcanic activity contributes vastly more CO2 into the atmosphere every day than all the vehicles and coal plants on the planet combined. Yes, human activity does contribute a small amount to the return to normal global temperatures, but not much.
