I never remember hearing of kids getting frost bite waiting for the school bus outside when I was a kid.
As far as global warming/cooling goes if you chart something long enough of course you can show your are in a warm up /cool down over a certain length of time just like trying to predict a bull or bear market for stock trading.
Reminds me of the time I proved the erf is odd!Quote:

As far as your point about how cold it is were you are: anyone who thinks that the fact it is very cold (or very hot )where they live is relevant evidence which corroborates or refutes the science behind global warming has no idea what they're talking about. Local temps have nothing at all to do with global phenomena. That's why the NOAA data is for "global" temps. See?
That's nice, but the URONG and the WTVR met just a few minutes ago and determined your argument is invalid. I could go back to Reagan and Lincoln and the Magna Carta if I wanted to
Explain to me what a "global" temp is, if not an average of "local" temps.
In response to the post below: All I am trying to do is answer the "what the heck do they know?" question which was posed to me. Don't try to burn the pot and I won't try to stir it

At the rate temperatures are going up the pot burning is inevitable.Quote:
