Global Warming
I can hardly see that it is debatable that we humans will hurry up the ending of our planet, be it by not loving each other enough or overuse of hair spray, but I would think that if the brain trust of scientists who put out this latest study on Global Warming wanted ME to take it seriously, they would have released it in the summer when it's really hot. Or even a month ago when it was an unseasonably warm winter month here on the east coast. It would have made greater impact on my simple-minded nature.

15, 11, 5, 8, 13, 16--These are not lottery numbers (but feel free to play them), they are the nighttime lows for my part of Virginia for the next six days. Of course, if I look at the weather for the whole country I see that there are a large number of states over this same time period that will be experiencing lows in double digit negative numbers. Forty or fifty below zero? I shudder, really I do, at the thought of it. I guess if I lived in N. Dakota and came to visit Virginia this weekend, where it might be a balmy 5 degrees one morning, I would think, jiminy, or holy cow, this global warming thing is for real.
