It's Like a Drum Beat


For awhile there I thought I'd gone deaf - almost a day went past without the constant bleat of "the-planet's-on-fire, the-planet's-on-fire." Thank goodness though, it was just a freak news cycle accident:

PORT-OF-SPAIN, Trinidad and Tobago -- Caribbean nations face "very, very scary" rises in sea level and intensifying hurricanes, and Florida, Louisiana and even northern California could be overrun with rising water levels due to global warming triggered by carbon-based greenhouse gases, Energy Secretary Steven Chu said Saturday.

Here's the article, but you've heard it all before. The usual doom and gloom, except for that extra bit about California going under. I imagine they don't always emphasize that, for fear it will cause some of us to cheer global warming on. I know, I know, there's a lot of good people in California. But they'll survive, and as for the fringe; well, I envision a great aluminum foil harvest from all the floating hats:


Meanwhile though, sun activity is at a record low. So the carbon nazis are scrambling to enact legislation in time to claim that they are responsible for putting us in a new ice age.
