'Twas warming and the melting glaciers
Did calve and crash upon the waves
All flimsy were the ice shelf fissures
And the sea ice misbehaves.
"Beware the Jabberblogger, my son!
The un-sourced claim! The dubious stat!
Beware the JunkScience site, and shun
WattsUpWithThat?!"
He took his scientific method in hand
Long time the denialist foe he sought --
And for the duration, by the Surface Station,
He stood awhile in thought.
And, as in nerdish thought he stood,
The Jabberblogger, with blog of fame,
Came snapping photos as fast as it could
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The Razor of Occam went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And, hast thou slain the Jabberblogger?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas warming and the melting glaciers
Did calve and crash upon the waves
All flimsy were the ice shelf fissures
And the sea ice misbehaves.
