Both effects would have lasted something at the order of at most hundred years, far below our capabilities to detect timescale of events, so the unfortunate answer (for the public, at least; I think most scientists can live with it) is that we will probably never know whether it was the heat or the cold, of a combination of these, or an even more complex combination.

But which race? Does there exist a German race? Has it ever existed? Will it ever exist? Reality, myth, or hoax of the theorists? Ah well, we respond, a Germanic race does not exist.

Scientists are the easiest to fool. They think in straight, predictable, directable, and therefore misdirectable, lines. The only world they know is the one where everything has a logical explanation and things are what they appear to be. Children and conjurors--they terrify me. Scientists are no problem; against them I feel quite confident.

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed.

Under the clouds of war, it is humanity hanging on a cross of iron.
