>> Note from the poster: this is double the rate of warming in the 20th century.<<

O NO! That's a WHOLE DEGREE FARENHEIT! We're doomed! Doomed! We're all going to fry! The Earth will turn into a living hell! Easter, 2050 in Paducah, KY will be 57 Degrees instead of 56! Grampa will hesitate slightly longer when considering whether to wear a sweater of a jacket. (O wait, that'll be me by then!) WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE!!! Or at least have slightly more pleasant winters in Sheboygan...

Ok, Ok... that last post was silly of me. Global warming is a serious issue. With that extra heat, millions of people will be driven Northward to avoid the plainly troublesome heat and weather conditions the global warming will cause. For instance, if this was 2050, instead of moving to Arlington, VA, I may have been forced to move to Columbia, MD. New Paltz will be flooded with millions of humidity refugees from Manhattan! And them damn Jellyfish will start hitting the Long Island beaches by late July (instead of early August.)

April showers bringing late April flowers! March coming in like a lamb, or at least a well-fed lion! Or maybe kind of like a wombat. I'm not really sure like wombats are, but I don't think any of us would be too pleased to have to tell our children that March comes in like a wombat.

You want to know terror? You want to know how bad things could get? Just chew on this for a while: Mosquitoes in April! AAAARRGGHHH!!!!! THE HORROR!!!

O, sorry... I went and got silly again...
