Well
a) So? Are other factors not allowed to operate in the absence of the influence of AGW? Of course not. So inferring a contradiction with the question "The ocean has been warming for approximately 100 years. How can that be?" is fallacious.
b) CO2 levels were rising through the 1800's (the industrial revolution beginning 1750), so a portion of the warming in the past 100 years being due to AGW isn't impossible.
