2. More accurately, you hate winter in Kansas.
You might like winter in coastal California, Texas, Florida, etc. ;)

3. When I hear this to my face, I roll my eyes and say (sarcastically of course)
that EVERYONE knows that the correct is really Global Climate Change, and that Global Warming is just a simplistic way of simplifying for the simple minded.

Makes me lots of friends too!

4. Only every other weekend?
You ought to be here in Northern Vt where it's snowed 20 days this month.

But that's OK with me. I like winter.

7. Shows again they are stupid. Because
global warming, not only warms areas up, it causes climate changes. It causes places to more extreme cold as well as hot. And it changes the Gulf Stream which if you remember warms the East Coast AND THE COAST OF ENGLAND.

10. I can commiserate it's headed this way next
We're supposed to get six plus inches, and we'll hear the same thing about global warming. We saw global climate change in action a couple of weeks ago with the ice storm, in previous years that would have been snow.
Ask these trogs if they'd rather have ice or snow.

12. my sympathies
and I begin to understand the other reason why Great-grandpa/ma loaded the 8 youngest kids (of 10) into a wagon and moved to California in 1908.

Grandpa commented on Kansas winters: you haven't experienced true cold until you have the "trots" in the middle of a snow storm and the outhouse is 'way out back.

The other reason they came west was lack of land/money- the old coot died and disinherited G-GP... left him $1.00. That was for marrying the woman he loved, instead of the wealthy widow GGGP had picked out.
