I assume the real scientists are the ones who predicted a mild winter 
for Britain?
I've too long been told I'm too stupid to understand the complexities of 
Global Warming, so I just bundle up from the exceptionally cold SoCal 
winter, that I'm sure scientists will tell me was the hottest on record, 
and amuse myself reading.
I perhaps find it a bit amusing that you had no words for Craig's 
perhaps tongue in cheek suggestion that dead birds hitting the ground 
might be signs of the apocalypse, but you have to choose your battle 
wisely. No sense correcting errors that don't interfere with your 
belief. I promise to abide by the real scientists who remain 
uncompromised by the billions and billions spent on research, when they 
post their latest plans for carbon trade offs from Cancun, or whatever 
resort they've congregated at.
But if they get snowed out one more time, it's going to start being hard 
to believe!
I assumed the latitude to post, probably as Craig did, because it's been 
a little slow on Paddlewise.
Oops, they just went online with  another coal plant in China!
