Winter again.

Ugh.

Is there anything worse than sleet hitting your unprotected face a
quarter of the way into your ride home?[...]

Riding on streets covered in deep slush, and having the passing motor
vehicles spray it all over you.

Being bathed in a half-bathtub full of diesel flavoured salted
Slurpee every time a car passes tests ones mettle.

Bring back global warming! I liked our record highs early this month
a whole lot more!

From http://www.nationalpost.com/opinion/columnists/story.html?id=332289:

"The last time the sun was this inactive, Earth suffered the Little Ice Age
that lasted about five centuries and ended in 1850. Crops failed through
killer frosts and drought. Famine, plague and war were widespread. Harbours
froze, so did rivers, and trade ceased."
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..........................

And then there's, while walking, stepping off the curb
at an intersection where the slush puddle appears to
be only about 5 mm deep, but it really goes over the
tops of your shoes. And each subsequent footstep for
the rest of the journey makes a squishy sound.

cheers,
Tom

Put a baseball hat under your helmet, to use the visor to intercept
rain or sleet.

Grow a beard for cold forecast weeks.

On the internet, nobody knows you're a jerk.

the Little Ice Age ..."

=v= Of course, the IPCC took the Little Ice Age into account
way back in 1996. Try to keep up.

=v= Of course, if global warming denialists *did* keep up,
they'd be out of work, since all they really do is play a
neverending whack-a-mole game ("But what about THIS? Aha!
Huh? Okay, so what about THAT? Aha! Huh? Okay, then what
about THIS?"😉, regurgitating long-debunked nonsense.

Another incoherent post, "Jym" -- this time for context, attribution AND
content! The trifecta! LOL

Try actually reading the /article/ this time:

http://www.nationalpost.com:80/opinion/columnists/story.html?id=332289

Scientists, climatologists and meteorologists from Princeton and various
national institutes are "global warming denialists"?!?

I almost dropped a CFL bulb reading your post; HAZMAT team standing by...

=v= Um, I actually read it last time. Opinion based on
nondata is worthless. Posting it twice because you think
that will impress somebody is also worthless, a consequence
of the 2 x 0 = 0 equation.

PS: How can someone "clever" enough to use a dummy To: field be such a
moronic, incoherent poster? Curious, curious...

PPS: The people quoted in the first article are hardly agenda-driven dupes.
Aside from the Princeton scientists, there are /international/ organization
heads as well. But of course, "Jym" (sic) knows better than they. (Be sure
to delete this in your next dishonest reply, as is your established P.O.
What a putz.)
