What you don't know, Jack, is why that's so. The poles didn't get warmer. They moved. You can see it in the igneous rock in the earth's crust where the trace iron in them is oriented away from where the poles are now and toward where they were when the rock cooled. So, when Antarctica was temperate it wasn't at the South Pole at all.

So, what are your feelings on the subject of the Loch Ness Monster being proof that dinosaurs and man lived on Earth at the same time? If you lived in Louisiana your hard earned, begrudgingly surrendered, tax dollars would be going toward paying for that to be taught in the classroom.
