    Obviously you don't understand global warming. Below average temperatures are not related to global climate at all. You never look at the numbers in a discussion of climate change. Unless the numbers are ABOVE average temperatures, of course, in which case the numbers are a DIRECT RESULT of global warming, and a sure sign of our imminent doom. I know that seems to be completely inconsistent and totally illogical, but once you have made the commitment to believe in global warming no matter what, it all makes sense.

    Global warming is caused by all the hot air expelled from the mouths of it's proponents. Everyone else is just talking.

    With all the hot air coming out of DC .......

    It should be red as blazes up there.


    Of course both the President and the members of his administration have been transporting their hot air elsewhere, traveling all around..... may be that's how DC keeps cool?

    Keep in mind -- it's not "Global warming" anymore -- it's "Climate Change" -- that way no matter what happens, you're right!!

    According to the UN, the planet has four months to live:

    OK...so four months and one day from now...can we demolish the UN building and kick these leeches out of our country? I bet our US Marines would be happy to send these morons back to the holes they crawled out of...

    Well, I for one have to agree with the 'climate change' that just occurred here around Burnet county an hour ago. It's been very hot, (in Texas?), and some strange liquid began falling from the sky. Scared the pants off the 2 year old next door as his father just told him a bed-time story last night about Chicken Little. Now his father has to explain to him the concept of 'rain'.:smilewinkgrin:

    It was warmer than usual in Oklahoma (Summer) and in the antarctic (winter)
    It was cooler than usual in China, Ohio, and the far North Atlantic south of Iceland.
    Overall, it was warmer in July OVER THE WHOLE SURFACE
    OF THE PLANET -- AKA AGW (man-caused Global Warming).
    People who deny the problem will probably be dealt OUT of the stuff left over 40 years from now. :-(

    I had a Southern Baptist Preacher say as late as 1977 that we Baptist & USofA folk should have more
    kids to feed what many call 'the world's war machine'.

    I hope nobody points out to you that you are one of the 3 wierdos per 1,000 people ( 3/10 of 1% = 0.3% )

    It got up to 81-degrees-F in front of my computer. It was AVERAGE summer afternoon (neither hotter nor cooler than the afternoon high typical of past 12-Aug 'events'. But one reading (neither the one in my house nor the one in my yard which was 93-degrees-F this afternoon.

    The reason I let it get above 72 is that I don't have much control. My heat pump pumps excess heat into the ground. The ground gets warmest about the middle of August, so in the middle of August their is less space to put all the extra heat. I could burn extra gasoline and make it more comfortable, but it costs more than I have. Isn't it interesting, my comfort depends on the economy, the economy depends on what folks do in China (1/3 of the world population) and India (1/4 of the world populatlion). And so does yours.

    AGW slogan of the day:

    THE EARTH - love it or leave it :1_grouphug:

    Obviously, you failed to detect the note of humor that was in my post that it was simply that it had not rained here in awhile.

    As for my comfort...don't ever...ever...try to presume what constitutes my comfort level, or what causes it. You know NOTHING about it.
    "The reason I let it get above 72" Poor thing, I've lived without heat/AC (except a space heater and a fan) for the last 15 years, and you want to compare climate control expenses? Mine averages about $45.00 per month year round. That's electricity, and propane.

    THE EARTH - love it or leave it :1_grouphug: Now that's just funny. Of course I'm leaving it. You plan on staying here?

    While you are disparaging a fellow brother-in-Christ, please count me as the 4th weirdo per 1,000 that believes the U.N. should be demolished and the space used for a good cause....more public parking.

    Is that the best refutation of the facts you have?

    More lunacy...this is fun, pointing out elected officials who have lost their ever-loving mind...

    Of course...we are talking Michigan. There are some great folks there...but some districts are full of voters that, shall we say, aren't Exhibit A for "good judgement."

    You sincerely wonder how someone so monumentally stupid manages to feed and dress themselves.

    She can "feel it when she's flying?"

    The fact is stability in the atmosphere is a function of the same temperature throughout -- hot or cold. As cold air is dense, it tends to sink. Hot air rises, and unevenly.

    As the hot air rises and the cold air descends there is a region of mixing, which may result in some small turbulence.

    If global warming were true, there would be less delta in the overall temperature -- less difference equals less contrast equals less turbulence.

    So is she saying her rump feels smoother air as she's flying?

    I don't refute the facts; you do.
    I don't appear ignorant; you do.
    I love you as a Christian Brother; but feel called to correct your (plural: AGW deniers who have a Christian bias - people who aren't even planning to be here when the runaway greenhouse happens) illogic. However, I cannot make you NOT look ignorant.

    The fact that the earth is a lot cooler in the current year proves that Global warming is occuring! It wouldn't be so cold unless it were hotter. And Gobal climate change is directly affected by your breathing so stop driving and breathing and reproducing. And the earth will cool down and cause more warmer regular tempratures.
