"I never seen nothing like this in my life".

HA!!

I was listening to the radio on my way into work this morning. There was a 5 min piece on oyster fishing in the Gulf of Mexico.

Brief synopsis: Climate Change causes drought. Drought causes oyster fishing to be bad. Bad fishing = good, hard-working, honest, oyster fisherman losing their livelihood as a result of mean, evil Global Warming.

Sez me..... I'm sure that some of the good, hard-working oyster fisherman will find a way to stay in business. Others will find different vocations.

I'm equally sure that there were never, ever droughts before AlGore invented Global Warming. And additionally, I'm even more certain that fisherman never, ever had bad luck before Global Warming, either.

Sheesh. People have short memories.

Throw in a lot of arrogance with that too. We did not collect reliable weather data until about WWI.

To say "this never happened before", "This is the worst on record...", "It is unprecidented..." etc is pretty much a stretch of any sort of realty and meant only for a dramatic effect.
