I get a real kick out of you guys who like to snark at snowstorms being the opposite of "Global Warming". I cleared that up in the thread about England's recent snowfall, but hey, look, here's more:Quote:

Winter storm warnings were in effect lat Saturday afternoon and into Sunday in parts of Georgia north to Virginia, with the rest of the East Coast set to follow as the weekend progresses.
A band of light snowfall was moving across the Tennessee Valley and the southern Appalachians, according to the National Weather Service. Madison, Alabama, had received 2.2 inches of snow since Thursday.
Snowfall amounts of 3 to 6 inches were possible across North Carolina, and Atlanta was receiving afternoon precipitation.
Picturesque Asheville in western North Carolina was well on its way Saturday to notching up to 8 inches of snow.

A Christmas Eve snow storm that blanketed parts of the Midwest was headed southeast, expected to bring rare Christmas Day snowfall to Kentucky, Tennessee and even Georgia.
After dumping 9 inches of snow in Iowa by this morning, the storm was likely to dip south into Tennessee and Georgia on Saturday, then perhaps move north Sunday. Winter weather advisories were in effect from Kansas east to Kentucky and from Minnesota south to Arkansas today.

Gee, the "extreme and unusual weather" predicted as part of global warming ain't happ'nin', is it?
We've got extreme weather out here on the West, too, but it's quite predictable...we get our heaviest rains from mid-December to early-January, so it's right on target.
Poor fools...do you stay deliberately ignorant, or do you just choose to use extreme cold weather to snark?

There is no global warming.
You claiming that snows in places which usually don't get snow, or this much, or this early in winter, is akin to waving a powerful talisman around , and claiming it wards off polar bears.
While doing so, in Miami.
See any polar bears in South Beach ?
That's proof that it works !

Of course, you claiming "there is no global warming" is exactly the same sort of talisman waving, and no more valid.
(And here's the part where you regale us all with your tales of all the "facts" you could cite, but won't, because we're simply not worthy..."

It's been done, 100's of times, over and over.
The world isn't only 6,000 yrs old.
There is no man made global warming.
I'll not waste my time with either debate, for obvious reasons.
* If snowfall increases because of global warming, increasing the reflectivity of the Earth (albedo), sending more of the suns energy back into space, then we have a self regulating system. So if more greenhouse gases = more heat = more snow = less solar heat gained then we're all good. Nice.

Mike is right: denying global warming as causing extreme weather (hot OR cold) is as much an excuse as saying definitively they ARE caused by it. It merely shows deliberate, persistent denial of the possibility, which, in the face of presented facts, is deliberate stupidity.
You and yours only use extreme weather of ANY kind except heat to snark, nothing more. You have nothing of substance to add to the discussion, so yes, why don't you just stop?
Your normal statements that "what I believe is true; don't confuse me with any contrary facts" is nothing new to us, just predictable. And sad.
I've begun to notice something. ANYTHING claimed by ANYONE you, Whozit or Kane have differing opinions on is never disproven, only claimed to be wrong and stupid stupid. Given you rarely have a leg to stand on and virtually never disagree with your buddies, it shows you only come here to attack people, usually in the most immature and personal fashion possible. That says all that needs saying, for me.

Was T. Rex a predator, or a scavenger ?

Again: See? No reality there, just snarks. Maybe it's partly that they aren't CAPABLE of coming up with anything like a real retort, I dunno, but it's interesting; ignore the discussion, make flat statements, or just post something stupid.
When you come right down to it; what a truly pathetic reason to spend time on a forum!

No reality ? Are you claiming T.Rex wasn't real ? Never existed ? Or are you trying to say there's no real scientific debate on this issue ?
I can assure you, there IS quite a conflict over this matter.
I ask because you seem to be the definitive source for damn near everything.
It's a serious question, so stop avoiding.
Answer, please. And show everyone just how capable YOU really are.

TBH, and not to stirr up a whole hate-fest, I always wonder why people who believe in "climate change", "global warming" whatever, massively ignore all of the evidence opposing the fact- and simply tend to trust the media and government overhauls and regulations.
And in short, no- I'm not buying into it :)

Alyss (hi, don't think I've met you before), I think people would rather swallow what they're told, like some of those here, than learn and consider...we see it every day in "beliefs" fed to the public which they then latch onto and will defend to the death. I find it just as strange that people who WON'T even consider the possibility are so fervent in their beliefs.
As to the other: I don't bother answering stupid questions which I know are aimed at me for assinine reasons and don't pertain to the topic.
