A new study by a University of Michigan professor shows Americans between the ages of 32 and 52 - a group referred to as Generation X . . . Generation X, which consists of people born between the years of the mid-1960s to the early 1980s . . . The scientists and journalists who agitate in favor of Global Warming "science" might be more believable if they could do basic arithmetic. Age 32 would be born in 1979/1980, which only by a stretch qualifies as "the early 1980s", but those age 52 would be born in 1959/1960, which does not qualify as "the mid-1960s". I remember when real scientists considered math a basic tool of the trade and would be embarrassed by such an absurd error - and would verbally beat down a faker who couldn't do math.

Uh-huh.....

I don’t know about the ones born after 1975, but people who were coming of age around the 1970’s probably remember the scares about global cooling. Many of us have developed some skepticism about anyone predicting the end of the world
