This is just unreal. We have the heat off and the windows open and no coats. Climate change has to be real whether it's a natural occurance or man-perpetuated. This is wild.

1. I remember riding around in a convertible with the top down...
dressed in shorts on New Year's Day when I was a teenager - a long time ago! It was in the 70's in the northern part of WV.

2. The "whether" is how Bush think has subsumed thinking.
Scientifically speaking there are no "ifs ands or buts" about it. It is real. That anyone even imagines that the issue is debatable is a measure of how deeply the LIES and yes, they are LIES have sunk it.

What is happening outside your window is real. The climate is dangerously destabilized.

8. The reason I said "whether" is because my grandfather,
who is almost 100, and I were talking today and wondering if this is a natural cycle in nature or if man has perpetuated it or sped the process up with the CO2 emissions. I know for a fact it's true! My grandpa and I were just wondering how much of this is a natural cycle for the world and we just happen to be living during this time of earthly change. We even talked about the magnetic shifting that is going on and how it must all be interlinked somehow. Just amazing to think about it all!

5. It's the same here in central Illinois.
Kinda freaky, since last Friday it was 9 degrees with 7 inches of snow. Gotta love the Midwest, huh?

:P
