LOL Good article.

Many newbies to the discussions of climate change forget that it’s more than global warming, and forget that the IPCC (CC=”Climate Change”) has been around for decades, and that “climate change” isn’t a new buzzword.

Hmmm, wouldn't that involve British cooking? You'd think they wanted you to save water to eat your neighbor given the Brit's propensity to boil meat.

a thin or missing ring meant it was a bad growing season and the tree effectively shut down.

So how does one notice a missing ring?

If the Anasazi have a lesson for us, it's if we want to avoid eating our neighbours we'd best be frugal with the water that's available. We'd better start getting greenhouse gas levels down and fast.

You know at that point, I don't know if I want to be the eater or the eatee.

This is just foolishness. What made the Anasazi run out of water? Global warming (ie Climate Change) or high CO2 levels. Seems that this just proves the opposite, the weather changed even before the UN and Al Gore started managing it.

I think I’d starve before I ate my neighbors.

Can we just come out and say Ted turner is insane? The tofu has finally sprouted in his brain and the guy is loopy-loo.

Yep, climate change seems to have been around for as long as there have been climates. While bogus environmental scare mongering has only occurred sometime after the rise of our own species within that environment.

We have iron and PVC pipe. We have wealth, science and engineering. The stupid, uneducated, superstitious grasshopper eating injuns had squat.

I’d still like to know why the Anasazi built their settlements largely in caves. The crops were overhead, and the water was way down below.

I guess that made them fairly hard to attack, but what a hassle. And there really isn’t any evidence of hostile neighbors.

“So how does one notice a missing ring? “

Same way one finds dark matter.
