I’m still waiting for the coming ice age they predicted in the 70’s.

They've been telling us for 20 years that the north pole will be ice free in 10 years. LOL
And that we were all going to freeze forever in the 1970's. LOL
I guess we should be glad they saved us by banning the McDLT. LOL

“The Media is always wrong about this stuff but somehow no one seems to remember. Acid rain was supposed to have wiped us out by now.”
We were all supposed to be frozen to death before that.

As if Sandy was a Hurricane that hit NJ.
It was a tropical depression that hit a cold front.

And Chicago was supposed to be under a mile of Ice by now due to THE COMING ICE AGE hysteria of the 1970s!

I thought "The Beach" is always on the border between the land and sea and if the sea rises "The Beach" will not disappear, it will just relocate.
Besides, the oceans have not risen significantly.

What do you call an expert whose predictions fail to materialize? A Democrat politician.....................
AKA a lawyer, a journalist or a public school teacher.

Obama himself bought a big house right on Martha's Vineyard.
That tells you right there that they were blowing smoke all along.
Only the very stupid and gullible believe in "global warming."

The science is never about the science. It is an excuse to seize more political power and squelch economic growth so there are more cries for economic redistribution.

When the rhetoric comes from a Leftist, it’s never about “The Science”, it’s always about “The Revolution [Oppression 4/of U]”.

To: Bayan
Acid rain was successfully prevented by new, costly environmental regulations. And so many years later, it was still horrifying to see entire dead forests killed by acid rain.
But such successes are exactly the problem with global warming... they picked a “crisis” that couldn’t be solved.

They said the same thing in ‘75 when I was in HS.
Scared so many young they stopped planning for future.

“Glad I’m not the only one that remembers acid rain.”
It was one of Prince’s first attempts at a hit song. I remember it well.

Hello, my friend. If you’re speaking of the “Hit and Run” list, JV3MRC actually does reply every so often (one in twenty, I would say). I do wish he would not excerpt his own material but that is another story. Out of fairness, he contributes to FR. What else can one ask? Still, love to hear more from you, JV3MRC!
