At least we'll all be tan!

I think Abnormal is just looking forward to having some oceanfront property there in Az. 



Personally I think the whole idea of global warming is a crock of :pokinit:  Not necessarily the warming itself, but the idea that it is OUR fault as a human race.  Scientific extrapolation and study of the ice caps, geology, archeology, etc.  has shown us that the earth goes through its own warming and cooling cycles.  Could we have something to do with it?  Sure.  Is it our fault?  no.  The earth is a dynamic thing, constantly moving and changing.  The problem is, we've got it in our heads that if it changes from the way WE like it, its a bad thing, rather than just a normal cycle.  The earth has shown incredible resilience in recovering from catostrophic events, IE meteor impact in the yucatan, volcano eruptions, etc.  Global warming is nothing more than another attempt by man to control what he cannot, and for the rich to try to pocket more $$.

"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free. "
