Looks like proof of global cooling to me!

In a fascinating article, Reuters tells us of a new discovery:

a short-necked plesiosaur, a prehistoric marine reptile the size of a bus, that they believe is the first complete skeleton ever found.

The 150 million year old remains of the 33-foot ocean going predator were found in August on the remote Svalbard Islands of the Arctic, the University of Oslo announced.



How cool is that?

Speaking of cool - you'll note of course that a prehistoric Reptile was found in the Arctic, right?

Anyone else see the irony here?
