Satis is right about the stars, nuclear fusion is what makes them work, so they are constantly undergoing nuclear reactions and are about 9'000'000K( i think, it's certainly no less than this temperature) so it's pretty hot in there
and i have no idea what Mole was talking about 
oh Satis your right about the mini ice ages as well, the last one was about 400 years ago and reached as far down as all of scotland and the top half of england, so even though it didn't reach the US (only got as far as Cananda) it was definatly an ice age.
I didn't know we were supposed to be in one of those at the moment, and i assumed you were talking about 'proper' ice ages, as it were
The greenhouse affect, while it occurs, it doesn't contribute as much to global warming as everyone seems to think it does, infact it's negligable

On a separate note: I think i have devised a way to measure our universe. Bear with me:
Ok, we wait for a star to shine its light on a point in space for the 1st time. Then, we estimate its distance from point to the Star by calculating the time spent for the light to arrive (light years).
SO that will effectively give us the apporximate distance from the seeing-point to the star (at the time of observation).
Fuck! forgot the rest. Are you with me? Can you help?

derf, how so you think that scientist know that the universe is still expanding......
you guesed it, it's from measuring how long it takes for light to reach our eyes, it's worked out using the red shift, it's where the colour of the light changes to the red end of the spectrum. The more the red shift the further away that star is....
you can't tell how big the universe is though cause its still expanding and there are certainly stars that exist, just we can't seem them yet cause they are so far away and the light hasn't reached us yet
