Ice ages and interglacial periods vary in length. The Snowball Earth one during the Cryogenian Period supposedly lasted for over 50 million years. And then there have been extremely long periods without any glaciation. To the point that the poles were temperate paradises.
As for going into one? I think we were supposed to be in one already or about to. But based on current trends that does not appear to be likely. And thank goodness!

I believe that we are contributing. But I do not believe that global warming is entirely man-made.

This is an excellent post. Except for the bit on iced tea. Iced tea is delicious in any form. *NM*

Sunspots are actually colder than the surrounding area, which is why they appear black

I meant using them as an indicator of solar activity - the REAL cause of climate change
