Am I the only one here who's in favor of global warming?
Just curious. Up here on the 42nd parallel, we went through most of January with temperatures in the 40s and 50s, and despite a horrendous February (mostly because Lake Erie hadn't frozen over) we still have had the warmest winter on record. So yeah, we're not too broken up over global warming. In ten years, reforms or not, we're probably going to have the kind of climate Virginia has now.

Plus, anything which sinks Florida to the bottom of the ocean has got to be a good thing.

2. However...
when the polar ice melts and cools the gulf stream and changes global climate, it is possible that northern latitudes will get colder not warmer!

:shrug:

put that in your pipe and smoke it!

4. Please send global warming to Maine
We broke most of the records for cold in Feb. Spring officially begins in 15 minutes and it's going to be 6 degrees tonight. Friday night we got a foot of snow.

11. I remember having four seasons
Now it's pretty much two seasons - hot and not so hot! It really sucks, it's not natural. It goes against the cycle of life!

15. Although I am not too opposed to Wisconsin being slightly warmer
I know that it is bad for most of the world in general. As a result, I'd rather put up with snow and cold winters if it meant that people did not get flooded out, starve because their crops died because of decreased rainfall and heat, and had their ecosystem completely wrecked.

17. Maybe you should move to a warmer climate?
That would be much better than wishing global warming on us all.

19. I think it would be worth
the price of island nations everywhere to have to be evacuated as sea level rises so you can be a little more toasty in the winter. :sarcasm:
