April 1977:

Warming or cooling, it's a catastrophe, it's caused by the West, and the answer is more government intrusion into our lives.

I will always remember the Blizzard of 1977. I grew up in Orchard Park, NY(south of Buffalo). We had 3-4 feet of snow and 75 mph winds. Schools were closed for a week. I was 14 at the time. I remember talk of the “coming ice age”. My high school Earth Science teacher said it was all BS because the glaciers were continuing to melt and receed.

I also remember that spring we had an ice storm that we lost power for week and school was closed again for another week. All of the neighborhood kids hung out at the house at the end of the road because they were on a different line and had electricity.

The downside was I think I was in school that year until almost July.
