OK, this is just too perfect. You couldn't make this stuff up.

Surely this is from The Onion.

While we're on the topic of global-warming nuts being exposed by
their own exploits...
Here's jewel that folks might have missed earlier in the week.
It was posted a number of times, but it gets funnier with each read.

The Meteorological is Political

Intrepid explorers Ann Bancroft and Liv Arneson left to much press pomp and circumstance a few weeks ago for their latest attempt at a North Pole expedition:

They are scheduled to leave the Twin Cities on Wednesday and start their 530-plus-mile trip from Canada's Ward Hunt Island on March 4. While their previous treks have focused on inspiring students to live their dreams, the two women are making the journey this time to draw attention to global warming.

This time, the two explorers decided they had an opportunity to show kids the effects of climate change in real time in an area "that's in real crisis," as Bancroft put it. They'll call in regular updates on satellite phone and will try to send photos to be posted on the Web, she said.

Sadly, their global warming odyssey was cut short today because of this inconvenient truth:

World-renowned polar explorers and educators, Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen, today suspended their historic expedition to the North Pole seven days in, citing severe safety concerns due to a combination of damaged gear, frostbite and extreme cold.

No photos of this up on the web site yet. Probably not the crisis they were hoping to document for the kids.

Some Like It Hot

Whilst watching the Gopher hockey squad down the Badgers tonight (A Minnesota-North Dakota WCHA tourney final? Who'd have thunk it?), I was also able to catch some of Marlo Lewis' presentation on C-Span that debunks much of what Al Gore espouses in "A Inconvenient Truth":

Marlo Lewis, Senior Fellow, Competitive Enterprise Institute talks about global climate change and critiques former Vice President Al Gore's Academy Award-winning documentary "An Inconvenient Truth." Mr. Lewis finds the film's claims about climate science and climate policy to be unconvincing. Mr. Lewis spoke to congressional staff and the media in the Rayburn Office Building.

You can find a link to the video here.

The March is working!

I am wary to say this; but... after reading in the past few months of a congressional hearing being postponed on global warming due to winter weather, The North Pole venture to study global warming being concelled because of extreme cold & frostbite, and now a story like this. I think our Heavenly father is sending a message "I AM IN CONTROL!"
