February 1-2 snowstorm

Winter storms do not have names.

Only on the self important Weather Channel. Don't get me started on them!:talktothehand:

Would need 100+ years of snowstorms (or any other weather) to prove/disprove global warning. I honestly don't care either way, but I do find it comical when people will cite a single weather event, or a single season, or even several years, and suggest that's evidence for/against. That isn't the right timescale for climate! Unless someone has data that stretches over centuries, you can pretty much ignore it all together.

The climate will change. According to archaeological evidence it has in the past. Why would it cease to change? I don't think we should trash the environment, but neither do I think we should abandon common sense and come up with all sorts of laws and regulations. Outlawing plastic grocery bags and styrofoam cups will have little effect.

I remember our teachers told us that glaciers covered most of North America at one time. That tells me they were receding long before Henry Ford ad his buddies came on the scene. Maybe they'll melt away entirely, or maybe there will be another Ice Age. Why do some people think that just because things were a certain way when they were born that they should remain unchanged?

For that matter, there are a lot of evolutionists that want endangered species to be protected at all cost. Why? Don't they want Darwin to be correct? I'd keep a wooly mammoth or two around for fun if I weren't real hungry. I wouldn't scrap plans for a highway for a few frogs.
