   Hmmm, record cold in India, China, the UK, and orange killing freezes on deck for Florida and Texas.

   Global Warming is a real drag.

   One of the subtelties the Global Warming crowd uses is stating that global warming is not all about “warming” – it is about climate change. Of course everyone knows that natural climate change is a legitimate issue. But not everyone knows that they mean Climate Change = man-caused climate change. So whether the winter is extra cold, or if the summer is extra hot they have covered their bases in rhetoric.

    The exhaust from that Ford F-350 actually makes a MUCH better noise than OwlGore has ever thought of making.

    BTW, why not shove the exhaust pipe of a Ford F-350 up a certain orifice on OwlGore and see if that changes the tune coming out of his mouth?

    This global warming charade is based on the premise of ordinary Americans being scientifically illiterate. So stop me if you haven’t already heard this. Carbon dioxide is necessary for the photosynthetic process that replenishes our supply of breathable oxygen. If there is too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, we can get rid of the excess by planting trees (and give ourselves shade on a hot summer day). If that isn’t enough, we can seed our shorelines with green algae. Any problems with this?

    I know that here in Oklahoma, we are under a winter weather advisory. We are warned of blizzard conditions. And will be in the deep freeze for days. Think most of the country is the same way.

    And oh yeah, in Genesis,8:22 it says, While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter , and day and night shall not cease.

    Here in southeast Texas, we’re expected to have freezing tempatures beginning tonight and lasting until Sunday.

    Compared this to other winters we’ve had where shorts and t-shirts were common. I’d say Gore is dead wrong, from the moment of his hatching. He’s been wrong.

    No Rise in CO2

    Most of the carbon dioxide emitted by human activity does not remain in the atmosphere, but is instead absorbed by the oceans and terrestrial ecosystems. In fact, only about 45 percent of emitted carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere.
    However, some studies have suggested that the ability of oceans and plants to absorb carbon dioxide recently may have begun to decline and that the airborne fraction of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions is therefore beginning to increase.
    Many climate models also assume that the airborne fraction will increase. Because understanding of the airborne fraction of carbon dioxide is important for predicting future climate change, it is essential to have accurate knowledge of whether that fraction is changing or will change as emissions increase.
    To assess whether the airborne fraction is indeed increasing, Wolfgang Knorr of the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol reanalyzed available atmospheric carbon dioxide and emissions data since 1850 and considers the uncertainties in the data.
    In contradiction to some recent studies, he finds that the airborne fraction of carbon dioxide has not increased either during the past 150 years or during the most recent five decades.

    This study pretty much does in the whole premise of CO2 causing global warming. Not a peep I am sure from the MM (I never watch it or read it anyway).

    I thought the whole premise was pretty much ‘done in’ a long time ago when no hot spot could be detected. The missing hot spot invalidated their assumptions on climate physics.

    This year’s version includes special effects, thanks to a system that pipes the exhaust from a Ford F-350 out of Gore’s open mouth. Compeau will fire up the truck periodically this winter to create the “hot air” effect.

    That’s a scream! But how is it any different from the real person?

    Yes, I have been enjoying that news today, immensely. Lots of warming nuts in Britain and especially London. Hopefully, the horrible weather in London will last until June and start again in September. They could learn how to make igloos.

    Please, don’t confuse our global warming nutters with the truth; “They can’t handle the truth!” Maybe when some of their toes freeze and fall off they’ll start to wonder. On the other hand, maybe not. “Global climate change” (aka the weather to the rest of us) covers all contingencies for them and they don’t have to deal with reality.
    We must all remember the old saying; You can’t reason someone out of a position they did not reason their way into.

    As a matter of fact I did–I almost said verbatim what Ed (#1) said, plus the usual thing about no matter what mankind does, we certainly cannot change the world weather-especially not by taxing us all even more. I get weary of repeating the same argument over and over but at least I am getting better at it!
    Look at the improvements we in the U.S. have made to our enviroment in the last 40 years. Most of us are extremely conscious of our need to not pollute. I live in the middle of frikkin nowhere Alaska and if I accidently spill a little waste oil in the dirt I will then dig up that dirt and put it in a spot reserved for it.
    Taxing and restricting industry in the U.S. is NOT going to change the weather to the libtards liking. Just what temperature do they think would be the right one for them? Holy Crap!
    And BTW Rush’s Algore doomsday clock is down to 6 years now and if we don’t “do something” the earth will be in Algore’s words,”scorched.”

    Alaskans always seem to strip away the B.S. and get right to the point. And when it is dark much of the day, you need something to distract and amuse, and politics are followed almost like a sport. LoL! Having had lived in Fairbanks for almost 2 decades, I love this story. Both the Compeau and Gavora families are well known and long time residents. I see a number of weather related comments here and I just looked at the Fairbanks weather forcast. It is 15 degrees there right now. Weather trivia: When it is unusually cold here in the Lower 48, it is always warm (By local standards anyway) in interior Alaska. Al could last in front of Thrifty Liquor until March before taking on the appearance of a Salvadore Dali-esque appearance and finally being reduced to a puddle.
