Now we know where the global warming came from!

A while back people got all crazy about magnets as a cure for all sorts of diseases and conditions.

Now that fad has pretty much passed into history's dust bin.

More Magnets = Global Warming

Fewer magnets = Global Climate Stabilization

“Imagine a flame coming out of an ice cube”.

Great. Now I’ll have nightmares about drinking lemonade and getting my face burned off.
No more ice in the Jim Beam and Coke. Has anyone told the FDA about this flamethrower ice? I blame it on the Danes.

I took astronomy back in college. ALL was new and marvelous then.
It doesn't take long to get out of the loop--about ten minutes!

This adds another dimension to the song, "How Great Thou Art," doesn't it?

At the very low pressures in the corona it is not clear exactly what the term “temperature” means. There are several different ways to define the term and they give very different results.
