Of Turkeys, Microwave Ovens, CO2, and the Oceans

When you cook a turkey in the microwave oven, the air around the turkey remains relatively cool. The air in the microwave oven is transparent to the microwave. If I was to put a frozen turkey in the microwave oven and only the very surface layer absorbed the microwaves, the turkey would never cook. The surface may become charred, but the wavelengths would never penetrate into the turkey and cook it. 
That is the exact phenomenon ignored when Climate Alarmists claim that CO2 is warming the oceans. Longwave infrared radiation does not penetrate the oceans. It is completely and absolutely absorbed in the very thin microlayer of the oceans. Longwave infrared radiation never penetrates far enough into the oceans to cause any significant warming.
