That’s why they had to change it to Global Climate Change......to cover all bases.

I know that, and you know that, but don’t bet your bottom dollar that our warming expert does.

I was IN Johannesburg the last time it snowed! We had a grand old time...we lived in Berea at the time. Now Berea looks like a war zone.

Uh, it's winter in South Africa right now. They're in the Southern Hemisphere.

Just remember: It’s global warming if it’s hot, and global warming if it’s not.

Flew into Jo'burg spent the night at the Intercontinental Hotel at the airport and flew north to Botswana early the next day. On our return we stopped in Jo'burg for brief layover on our way to Cape Town. Returning to the US we flew thru Jo'burg, once again a brief layover. No desire to visit Jo'burg, although Pretoria intrigues me somewhat ... maybe next trip.

Yep. They said we’d die of the cold in the dark.
