To get this into perspective, note that New South Wales, Australia, is in a nearly sub-tropical region, and is currently heading into the southern summer. October is spring, and is usually very warm, often hot.

Can I have my money back from the global warming cult?

That global warming is a b*tch.

Isn’t it amazing how the prospect of a financial market meltdown and a deep recession or an outright depression moved all of the climate change/global warming hokum to the back burner?

Sub-Tropical? Really? My friend who lives in Sydney says it's the same weather as Myrtle Beach, SC. Yes, it is heading into Summer though.

If Obama is elected we will immediately be told that global warming has already been gotten under control. No One will have egg on their face because they were wrong. Algore and his gang will be vindicated by media and academia. As time goes by an downward climate trend continues we will be told new policies have been very effective. Thanks be to Obama and the heroic visionary Algore.

They might have to change the story - not just in the USA but all around the world - as we face a severe cold snap, and it has been a cooler year.

I’m surprised it runs all the way to DC, but then given the miserable humidity and heat there in the summer it’s not surprising.
