Indeed.

Of course people like Schroedinger deny that the holocene maximum
existed, so your question is answered.

Silly.. silly idiot.... paleoclimatologists don't use mathematical
terms to describe climate periods. The warmer periods are called
CLIMACTIC optimums... See that little word.. Climactic ? ?

Paleoclimatologists call them "Optimum" because they were the best
times for growth and life on this planet... much better than the
colder times.

But nice try to escape the truth that you wish to avoid...

Are you sure? Maybe we need to ask a paleoclimatologist ?

"The evolution of the Eocene climate began with warming after the end of
the Palaeocene-Eocene Thermal *Maximum* (PETM) at 56 million years ago
to a *maximum* during the Eocene *Optimum* at around 49 million years ago."

Ubuntu Dictionary :-
"greatest degree, or largest amount possible under given circumstances"

-Syn. ideal, perfect, optimal.



I recerntly asked what the global temperature should be. I never got
an answer from anyone.

A reprint fom yesterday:
Al Gore once said that the earth was sick - "it has a fever". Doesn't
such a statement presuppose that we know what the ideal temperature of
the earth should be. Well, what is it?

It means peak periods to me. 0However, in general, optimization theory
deals with critical points on a hypersurface with the minima and maxima
are characterized by first derivatives which are all zero with respect to
all variables. The second derivatives defines maxima or minima.

When you optimize a system, you might be trying to find the maximum or
the minimum. Maximum yield of product for example, or minimum amount
of impurity.
