The earth is warming but not to the degree that Global Warming idealist portray.

What is happening is Biblical though,

Revelations 16:

"8": And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was given unto him to scorch men with fire. "9": And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God, which hath power over these plagues: and they repented not to give him glory.

Install a second windshield-washer tank w/pump under your hood, routing a hose to a point just before the throttle body.

Use a light weight oil (maybe even cooking oil), and just experiment with oil weight/engine speed/throttle setting combos for maximum effect.

Some diesel tractors/trucks come with a device that sprays ether into the intake for cold morning starts. One of those, with a can of WD-40 or carb cleaner produces tons of white smoke. Check with a tractor dealer for one of these things. I know that International Harvester had them on their tractors back in the 60’s and 70’s.

NAPA may be a good try, too, they have lots of “fun” stuff....

I equate this passage with the scenario that astronomers predict will happen when the sun uses up it's supply of hydrogen and starts to fuse helium atoms....

They say it will become a "Red Dwarf" star, and grow in size from it's present diameter of 1 million miles to approx. 40-100 million miles. At that diameter, the planets Mercury and Venus will be incinerated, and Earth, if it isn't fried outright, will be nothing more than a cinder....

“The authors caution that geoengineering methods to mask global warming may have serious environmental consequences that must be explored before any action is taken.”

But we don`t have time to explore the consquences. The planet is dying and action must be taken now!!! Reminds me of the proposals scientists made in the `70s to melt the North Pole to prevent an onrushing ice age. And now we are destroying rainforests in an effort to “save” the earth and it`s biosphere. (bio-fuels) What really frightens is that the ever increasing hysteria over a half-a-degree temperature rise over a hundred years is going to force taking ever increasing drastic actions. Then we will REALLY screw things up.
