Again, we lack the data to conclude anything. The chicken little crowd thinks that extrapolating cherry picked data is "science" . Color me dubious.

For some reason you seem to be stuck in the past. I really don't care about 4 1/2 million years ago and I don't care about 4 1/2 million years from now. I care about what is happening today, what may be affecting it, and what might be done before my nieces, nephews, and their children have to deal with it.
One graph of data that shows the increased rate of warming over the last 150 years begins 2,000 years ago. Not the 4 1/2 million years that has your attention but hardly cherry picking.
