The horror! California grapes disappear while the Northwestern grapes get mildewed by humidity. Take away my glaciers, don't take away my wine! I have finall converted to the Climate Change bandwagon -- /sarc

Think Anyone will notice?

The main problem: An increase in the frequency of extremely hot days, according to Noah Diffenbaugh of the department of earth and atmospheric sciences at Purdue University. The more hot days in the US, the more the fog lingers around the coastal strip.
Surprise! That's where the grapes are grown!

Well then, the 3 west coast states should immediately outlaw privately owned automobiles and all good citizens should commence using public mass transportation to stop the global warming!
That is what the global warming crowd is working towards, is it not?

We could build some wind farms if politicians like Kennedy didn't object.

LOL! Last week they were crying about not having enough $5.00 an hour illegals to pick ripe grapes.
Have you tried the Australian wines? Not shabby.
To: Fractal Trader
Oh, so frickin' what.
Something else will take it's place like a Starbucks coffee plantation - that should calm the lib hysteria.

He doesn't object.... as long as it is on your land, or blocks your view, or devalues your property.

No, I don't think so. The big earthquake will destroy the California wine country. The climate change will destroy the Nevada wine country.
