Here's some climate change in action.

I wonder how many of the republicans affected by this still think Gore is an idiot?

Hey, there were no huge hurricanes in 2006 & 2007 - those climate change people are morons.

if I write anything more I'll get you more depressed.

Willful ignorance. It starts at the top and works its way down.

When people don't like what they hear... They start talking in absolutes.
I keep hearing... But our winters are colder! None of these people acknowledge that they're far shorter, with lot's of warm days sprinkled throughout. We also get practically no snowfall compared to 20 years ago.

There is a big diff in the winters, but people won't see what they don't want to.

and 10,000 years ago

you would've been in a frozen hell all year round ...
Mankind is not causing global warming. We're still emerging from the last ice age ... the climate 65 million years ago was considerably warmer than it is now ... so we're just coming back to the climate that should exist on this planet (barring immense meteors knocking holes in Mexico); an thanks to the greenhouse gasses that we've added and continue to add, the rate of change in mean temperature is high enough that we'll reach steamy jungle conditions, like the dinos' had, within our lifetimes. hopefully by then we'll have reached a tech level that will allow us to say "ok, it's warm enough, turn off the heat." otherwise it's gonna suck big time ...
