1. I've heard the RWingers saying it.
Its depth is decreasing.

My town (Olympia WA) flooded today, with the Department of Licensing, and many other buildings having to be evacuated. I had to sweep 5 inches of water out of my own garage, all things for which there are little or no historical precedent. Last year, windstorms knocked out power to tens of thousands, but more importantly, they knocked down lots of trees which has stood for hundreds of years, which tells me that this hasn't happened before in recent history.

SOMETHING IS CLEARLY HAPPENING WITH THE CLIMATE.

What it will take to make the repukes recognize it is the big question.

5. Oops. Should have read more carefully. Just freeper BS with no basis in reality.

I just assumed there was some minimal anecdotal evidence behind the claim ("I'm cold today so the global warming is false"), and thus misread the post. Thanks for the correction.

6. The post is purposely provocative I guess, with the hope that you will click the link
and learn how to respond to the freeper BS.
