There have been lots of ice ages in history, but not many super volcano eruptions. When a dramatic drought falls reasonably close to the latter and PBS blames the former I get suspicious. There is loads of liberal angst regarding the former, but little regarding the latter. I guess they haven't figured out how to blame volcanoes on Bush yet. They'd love to have an ice age just to blame Bush for it. Absolute geologic dates c. 75k ago often are give or take a few thousand years. Sometimes data exists to compare one ancient event to another more precisely. I don't know if that exists here. If the drought closely followed Toba I'd blame Toba even if there was an ice age then. It wouldn't surprise me for Toba to have triggered an ice age itself. It put a lot more into the atmosphere than we and the Russians could have in nuclear war, yet the left loved scream about 'nuclear winter.'

How'd we ever get from NW to GW???
Seems to me, if it gets too warm, all we gotta do is pop of a few nukes!!
