BUENOS AIRES, Argentina (AP) - Argentina's Perito Moreno glacier is one of only a few ice fields worldwide that have withstood rising global temperatures.

Nourished by Andean snowmelt, the glacier constantly grows even as it spawns icebergs the size of apartment buildings into a frigid lake, maintaining a nearly perfect equilibrium since measurements began more than a century ago.

"We're not sure why this happens," said Andres Rivera, a glacialist with the Center for Scientific Studies in Valdivia, Chile. "But not all glaciers respond equally to climate change."

"The glacier has a lot of life," said Luli Gavina, who leads mini-treks across the glacier's snow fields.

Stoked Notes on Real Weath Death Stats: if we study that chart we should be surprised to see a lessoning of extreme weather deaths from 1900 to 2004. The worst year is the decade between 1920 and 1929 where you see 485 deaths in thousands and 242 per million. The most current extreme weather deaths between 2000 and 2006 are only 22 death in thousands and 3 per million. This chart can be found at: http://wattsupwiththat.com/2008/07/05/going-down-death-rates-due-to-extreme-weather-events/

Is this the reason more than 31,000 scientists initiated a law suit against Al Gore's data calling it a fraud. The names of these 31,000 scientists can be revealed at the following we site: :
