Feel the warming
NY Post ^ | February 11, 2010 | Editorial

If, like everyone else from New England to Virginia, you spent the last 24 hours watching the global warming fall from the sky, you may agree that Sen. Jim DeMint could be on to something.

The South Carolina Republican took to the Twitter-sphere to declare that the region's second major blizzard in less than a week must be a sign from God.

That is, he said, "It's going to keep snowing . . . until Al Gore cries 'Uncle!' "

Fat chance.

In fact, the usual suspects quickly took to the Web to declare that the blizzards of 2010 actually make the case for global warming.

How “colder” could possibly make “warmer” is a very difficult argument to follow, as it flies in the face of simple logic and definitely is not supported by thermodynamics. In order to get “warmer”, it is necessary to apply heat to the system, and “colder” indicates the absence of heat in the system. In fact, what heat is here is being steadily radiated away through something called “entropy”. Any closed system, over a sufficiently long time, eventually reaches an equilibrum in temperature somewhere in the vicinity of absolute zero, where there is no molecular activity at all.
