Taking climate change a step too far

Yesterday, it was nearing 70° F in Dallas.

Today, it is snowing and gusting in Washington as if it were Siberia.

For that matter, two weeks ago in New York, I ran into a colleague who IS from Siberia (now lives in Moscow), and even he was complaining about how cold it was. I reminded him that as a Siberian, he had no business complaining about the cold. He politely told me to shove it, and that if he didn't like the cold when he was in Siberia, he had every right to not like it in Manhattan (he had point, there).
