Climategate: Imminent Demise of Glaciers Due to … a Typo!

Well isn't this just getting pathetic?  A typo?  Decades and decades of faux research, and this is the best excuse that this scumbags can come up with?
The IPCC has been claiming Himalayan glaciers could be gone by 2035. The research paper they used concluded 2350.

According to Prof Graham Cogley (Trent University, Ontario), a short article on the future of glaciers by a Russian scientist (Kotlyakov, V.M., 1996, The future of glaciers under the expected climate warming, 61-66, in Kotlyakov, V.M., ed., 1996, Variations of Snow and Ice in the Past and at Present on a Global and Regional Scale, Technical Documents in Hydrology, 1. UNESCO, Paris (IHP-IV Project H-4.1). 78p estimates 2350 as the year for disappearance of glaciers, but the IPCC authors misread 2350 as 2035 in the Official IPCC documents, WGII 2007 p. 493!
The Yetti is relieved!
