Just shoveled about 7 inches in -28 wind chill and to tell you the truth I think I'm adapting to this Global Warming by cooling.

Breathing was hard but the cold was nuttin. Hard to believe 500 years ago this place was swarming with Indians all surviving by fire in the winters.

Pesky research that indicates, in fact, that a shift in the polar cap due to global warming will create arctic weather patterns not normally seen in the southern reaches of the subarctic Northern Hemisphere.

But let's just continue to dismiss science. Cain't be Cold if it's warmin', therefore it ain't warmin'! That's just you hippies pushin' yur BS on us! Even Rush has it figgrd out!

Or that the globe has gone through five previous ice ages, the last, 10,000 years ago.

Despite the fact I come from a monkey it would seem that ALL of those previous ice ages were ended with a period of global warming.

Mother Nature is far more able than she's given credit for and the human race as a whole is far too vain and self-important to ever realize it.

Steve, I don't know why the climate is changing due to global warming, it's just a fact that it is.

If you want to believe it's just mother nature hitting the delete button every 10,000 years, that's your right.

If you want to refuse to believe indisputable science showing that elevated greenhouse gases over the past 60 years have markedly impacted the temperature of the atmosphere, and that we can actually at least try to do something about it then hey, go for it.

Just don't deny that it's occurring. That's plain silly.

What does becomes tiresome is the dropping IQ levels of the people that dismiss that, and thus regurgitate Rush Limbaugh and bombard message boards with snide, asinine global warming jokes (because it's cold, don't ya see? hur hur hur)....it seems commensurate with the rise in sea levels.

I'm praying for warming. Too many islands to begin with.
