So much for the continued BS that is "Global Warming."

Note: Many major models are predicting something the U.S. hasn't seen in a while: a significant El Nino event beginning next fall and through the winter. This results in a colder and wetter winter and spring for the southern tier of the nation, but a warmer and drier winter and spring for the heartland, Midwest, and northeast. As far as the west coast, well, who cares? Earthquakes, mudslides, and wild fires will take care of them.

These misnomers happen in science. For example, the "Big Bang" was neither.

Now I am not a big fan of the Global Warming claims either, but I am not naive to think we should not do everything to prevent man made damage to the Earth and atmosphere. I find it odd that Republicans claim that financial positions of the current administration will affect the future of the children, but let us not stop some affects man might be causing on the world. And let us not certainly come up with energy alternatives that might get certain countries that advocate our destruction by keeping access to the same old technology.
