What is global worming? And when is it coming to Michigan?j/k. But I do disagree with the whole man-made thing. 20 years ago, we were worried about global cooling. We just need to evolve, kids.

If by "we" you mean "scientists", you're wrong. The only people who thought the planet was cooling in the 1970's were the people who also believed that if you played Sgt. Pepper's backwards, it had a secret message that Paul was dead.

Yes Martha, you can get your new 2010 Toyota 4Runner with a 4-cylinder. As long as it's 2WD. And as long as it's with an old 4-speed automatic.

I'm not wrong. The planet did appear to be cooling. Heck, it was cooling. At that time, the things that caused cooling held sway. That has changed. What drives me up the wall is that people think climate change is somehow new. The climate's been changing for a long long long time. We just happen to have to tools to notice it now.

It's kind of like looking at the stock market. It's impossible to know is going on by looking at a short term graph. If you zoom out and look at what's been happening since the 1880s, it's pretty obvious that we've been in a long term warming trend.
