Global Warming The debbil made me do it

http://www.dailytech.com/Temperature...ticle10866.htm

Well, looks like we have been slacking off on our duty... Get out
there and run those engines and warm things up....

Anyway, the comments on this article were fun to read...
Lots of knee jerk, spittle flying, diatribes... Weighted heavily
towards the Al Gore true believers of course, but also some ranters on
the the other side of the 'discussion'...

Then there are thoughtful perspectives and discussions of possible
other variables overweighting the burning of fossil fuels - soot /
solar output delta / what constitutes 'normal', etc... What
constitutes normal is a fascinating area for research... The one
poster hit the nail square on the head, when he commented that we
won't know what 'normal' temperatures and CO2 levels are during an
interglacial period, until roughly 500 years after we are back into
glaciation... Then we can look back and calculate what 'normal' was
supposed to be...

Facts don't matter, Denny. This "crisis" was never fact-based to begin
with, and no amount of evidence to the contrary is going to sway the true
believers...

Most people want to believe the worst. Truth is this earth will be here way
after us.
The only way to really control things is to limit the population and it will
be a long time before that happens.

Very true and, in the due course of time, we will part of the fossil fuel
reserves which for a future civilization--and the climate will continue to
change in cycles as the continents continue to shift.

In either direction.

Be it up or down, one year is not enough to make a yea or nay
statement.

Sunspot activity, or lack there of has long been known to create
drastic cold spells as with the so called "Maunder Minimum" and the
little ice age.

Temperature and precip vary widely from year to year and local to
local so taken by itself this past year is only a blip in a sea of
change. Give it another 10 years and then *maybe* we can say it
probably, might, could have meant something. :-))

Here (Midland MI) they are talking about the possibility of an all
time record snow fall total. 4 1/2 miles out of town where I live it's
been nothing special. The same is true in Minnesota. Some areas
already are reporting record snow falls while less than 10 miles away
(Minneapolis area) they have less than average. Here, so far our
temperatures are running close to average or a tad above on the 10
year scale.

Denny is about 10 to 15 miles from me and I'd bet his winter has been
different than mine, or Midland's. Driving over to the old family
farm (Breckenridge 30 mi SW of here) finds very little snow.
I don't know how the temps have been over there.

Agreed -- but I don't think too many people will be able to endure ten more
brutal winters like this one.

Temps are dipping down to -5 degrees again tonight -- and it's March...

Bring on the global warming, please!
