You really sure about that, Jiro? Have you been reading newspapers a lot on the subways daily? lol
And you wonder where people get these myths about global warming as caused by man? For one, the media purposefully use the word "hole" in "ozone hole" for scary effect when there is in fact no hole at all. Just a thinning layer of ozone that thickens and thins over time. Secondly, this "ozone hole" was first measured in 1956 way before the "ozone destroying" CFCs (refridgerant) were in common use. It goes like clockwork, just like global warming only on a much shorter time scale. The "hole" appears at the end after a long dark, cold Antarctic winter, lasts about three to five weeks, and then this "hole" slowly disappears. None of the permanent depletion of the ozone layer. Kind of makes you wonder about the science lately, eh?
Note NASA's use of the word "hole," too. Great PR stuff to boot! But as you can see, this "hole" disappears every year like clockwork.
