Ping me if you find one I've missed.
Is the weather nowadays really any more extreme than it was a 100 years ago, or a 1000 years ago, or 10,000 years ago?
Crap! and I just got my A/C fixed! Now I’ll have to fix the heater!!
Sheesh. After reading that, I think I’ll opt for global warming.
It does seem to have been a year for cold extremes. heres an example:

Not particularly.
It's curious how people have an obsessive need to think they live in unique times. There's also this incredible inability to face the reality that destructive natural phenomena are routine and normal.
People (largely religious apocalyptikooks) like to prattle about earthquakes increasing, too, which is nonsense.

Oh for Pete’s sake!
Time to pack my skis and head to the Dominican Republic.
Drive the long way to work. We need more CO2 in the atmosphere.
MORE SUV’S!!! MORE SPEWING FACTORIES!!! WHAT ARE WE WAITING FOR!! LET’S GO! GO! GO!!
Who knows? In our state they’ve only been keeping records for the last 70+ years. My guess is that it has all happened before and the weather, like the stock market, will continue to fluctuate.
Time for a poll. Would you prefer to die by burning or by freezing?
Results available when we get the right or left answer. Whatever that may be.
From Rush today -
"I wouldn't be surprised if the global warming thing bombs out. What will happen next is not global cooling, they will say, "You know what, the climate isn't changing. We got global staying the same and that's bad because the climate right now is producing all these droughts and floods and so forth, these extreme storms, tornadoes and hurricanes," they'll do whatever they need to do."
