lol, Thanks!
Oh man, Gore and Tony Blair need to do something about this before the next Ice Age rolls thru.. What dolts the proponents and followers of global warming are..
Earth's ‘Fever’ Breaks: Global COOLING Currently Under Way February 27, 2008

Earth's ‘Fever’ Breaks: Global COOLING Currently Under Way
[Disclaimer: Since there is no “normal” temperature of the Earth, there is no way the Earth can have a “fever.” The headline's reference to “fever” is for amusement purposes only.]
A sampling of recent articles detailing the inconvenient reality of temperature trends around the planet.
News Round Up
Report: Temperature Monitors Report Widescale Global Cooling (Daily Tech – February 26, 2008)
Excerpt: All four major global temperature tracking outlets (Hadley, NASA’s GISS, UAH, RSS) have released updated data. All show that over the past year, global temperatures have dropped precipitously. A compiled list of all the sources can be seen here. The total amount of cooling ranges from 0.65C up to 0.75C — a value large enough to erase nearly all the global warming recorded over the past 100 years. All in one year time. For all sources, it's the single fastest temperature change every recorded, either up or down. [ ] Over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded.
And cooler than average for the 12th century.

This is bad, really bad. I hope it doesn't happen again next year.
Spring? What spring? It’s 5 degrees in Fairbanks, the normal is about 27. It’s supposed to get down to -15 tonight. Take your globull warming and stuff it!
UMMMMM ISN’T THERE A CONSENSUS THAT THIS IS THE coldest YEAR ON RECORD IN A LONG TIME???
I just noticed some cherry trees last night that looked like they had been in bloom for quite a while. This was in the Northwest. Essentially we had no winter this year.
Easter is earlier this year than anybody living today will ever see again.
The Lowell pages 2 and 3 of the report from which this article was so cleverly adapted appear to be missing and the report seems to have been written two years ago; but this remains in the report concerning the writer’s likely use of these two now missing photgraphs:
“The striking photograph at the top of page 2 was taken in the Lowell Cemetery in Lowell, Massachusetts,
on Memorial Day, 30 May 1868. In the photo, the trees have not yet leafed out, despite the late date, and people are wearing heavy clothing. The photograph below it, taken on the same date in 2005 at the same location, shows the trees fully leafed out. At least two of the large, leafless trees in the 1868 photo are still alive and had fully leafed out in 2005. An exceptionally cold spring probably caused the delayed leaf-out in 1868; the mean temperature from February to May of that year was 4 degrees F (2.2 degrees C) lower than the average over the past 150 years and nearly 5 degrees F (2.7
degrees C) colder than February to May 2005.”

We have only the author’s analysis of a single photograph to even accept that the two implicating trees in question are indeed remaining today.
Read the link (PDF) I enclosed, for it does go into the same sort of explanation this journalist attempted, but please don’t just buy into trying to compare bloom-out periods between two “cherry-picked” photos between two temperature extremes as proof of generalized warming.
They arrived on Mar 15 back in 1990. I guess we are to conclude that the earth has cooled down since 1990.
Uh-huh. You bet.
NOAA Climate Prediction Center 6-10 day forecast:
The 8-14 day forecast doesn't look much better.
Hmm, so all these plants and animals will go extinct because we added a degree to the temperature.
A question: when skeptics bring up the “little ice age” or medieval warming period or whatever, the global warming theorists says these were just on one part of the globe and were not true global phenomena. Given that so many species only live in one part of the globe, shouldn’t these past events have already caused these extinctions?
