Everyone knows global warming makes everything colder, silly.

Geeze, didn't you see The Day After Tomorrow?

Has Gore been out there recently?

Sounds like classic Gore effect to me

There was a post somewhere around here about "The Gore Effect". The gist of "The Gore Effect" is that at times when manbearpig goes out and about speaking about "global warming" some places he has spoken at have had some of their lowest temps. in recent memory.

No mater how tight they close down post the mess hall will be open.

Barracks Rats have to eat.

I was a Barracks Rat for six years before I found better quarters. Liked going to AF and Navy bases. They had mid-rats, good place to end the night after a night on the town.

The "Gobal Warming" theory has been fixed.
It's now "Climate change". That takes care of any problems with the theory.

I've been through this before in Arizona and New Mexico. In December 1971, as I was driving from Fort Gordon (GA) to Fort Lewis (WA), I got caught in a blizzard in Albuquerque and spent an extra day there. When I got out of there, I-40 was fine through New Mexico, but it was pure ice in Arizona. It hit -5 in the morning in Flagstaff, and I didn't get out of the snow until I hit Kingman.

Tucson was basically shut down this morning. All the roads crossing over the Rillito River were closed. (bridges froze over).

It brings back the memory of when I had completed the MI Officer's advance course and had my PCS orders in Dec, 1982. I cleared my quarters on the 28th and was in the post guest house and planned to leave on the 29th. I woke up to no power and a foot of snow on the ground.

I went down and found my combat boots, which were packed, naturally in the bag at the FRONT of the U Haul trailer. I trekked down to the billeting office and the manager said "I bet you want to know if you can extend your stay." I said "Yes." He replied, "No problem, I've had a half a dozen calls from folks stuck elsewhere saying they won't be arriving for a day or two."

I delayed departure until the 31st and made it to El Paso by 4pm, that day. The pass through the mountains east of El Paso was not opened to traffic until 10am and then only to vehicles with either chains or snow tires. Because I was going on leave back to the midwest I had snowtires on my car. It was a long day crossing the mountains due to the snow and ice. the road itself was about 6 inches below the ice surface I drove on.

No, no, no!

Anecdotal evidence is only acceptable when it "proves" global warming.

For instance, the fact that 2% of the Antarctic ice shelf is melting is proof of global warming.

The fact that 98% of the Antarctic ice shelf is getting thicker is proof of nothing.

Is that clear?

Look on the bright side. It should be easy to track illegals for a little while...
