Meanie! I’ll bet you want all those poor climatologists to starve to death! I bet you want to hunt them down and persecute them, even though they are a fascinating, complex species in their own right!

And I feel fine…

It is all lies and posturing. The revelations from East Anglia are all we need to know. Same old, same old.

There is only one constant in life: Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

All the rest are chaff, blown about by the wind.

One day soon, after the overdue Yellowstone supervolcano finally erupts, those of us who are left will all sit down and have a good laugh about “anthropogenic global warming.”

Would that be on December 22, 2012, Peter?

It seems to me the dominant fear of modern man is a loss of control. Earlier generations knew that the flu, cholera, bubonic plague, or raiding Vikings were likely to kill you before old age. If you survived childhood diseases, you might live to 3 score and 10, but it was still an iffy thing. Modern man, on the other hand, thinks that EVERYONE ache and pain should be assauged NOW and whoever caused it MUST BE PUNISHED!

I think the people who fear global warming (or global cooling, take your pick) really fear death. That means they must control not only what they legitimately should control – their own behavior – but control others as well. In the extreme case, someone like Al Gore can advocate carbon emission reduction while living a lifestyle with a huge carbon footprint. Of course, he is engaged in a media-approved crusade so few will catch the contradiction.

Climate scientists do not appear to be an endangered species.

Yellowstone first? Nah, I think not. To retain its reputation as the disaster center of the U.S., California will light off the Long Valley Caldera (Mammoth Lakes) before Yellowstone. It’ll put a definite kink in skiers’ plans if it happens in winter, but hey!, life is hard.

Every day we’re 24 hours closer to the end.

Jim,
“Every day we’re 24 hours closer to the end.”
Are you taking into account the fact that we are now on “Standard Time”?

FW Ken, I can’t even say if I’ll be alive tomorrow, much less predict the eruption of a supervolcano.

trespinos, please don’t give California any ideas. I know they’re desperate for money due to their legislators’ lack of control when it comes to spending, but I fear they’ll take your suggestion as a means of obtaining federal disaster funding.
