[stylist] global warming-was try this prompt

Lori,
I've commented and posted blogs many many times on the manmade global 
warming religion.  obviously I haven't bought into it, and now in the 
past couple months lots of evidence indicates I was right to be very 
skeptical.  I understand but "climate change" is kinda silly as 
climate is constantly changing under a variety of cycles and 
influences from solar  output cycles and sunspots lunar cycles, etc.

yes I've read about the polar shift issue, potentially very serious 
indeed and we don't really know what effect it would have on our 
modern life if the earth's magnetic poles switched.

about six hundred years ago, it appears the earth was warmer than it 
is today.  for example the french noblemen were complaining 
vehemently about the wine imports competing against their own.  these 
wines were from britain.  you can't grow vinyards in britain today.

but if I go further, then I'm getting political on this list.  but 
suffice it to say that in the last two months several  items have 
become public knowledge discrediting manmade global warming/climate change.

last night and today we got five more inches of snow on top of the 
six or so remaining from the Christmas blizzard.  Today wind has 
stayed 20-25MPH.  as I type it is 3F making the wind chill somewhere 
south of -15F!
nobody can drive safely around here right now.
it is just cold.  the coldest christmas, new year/first week of the 
year in like 30 years here.
apparently literally hundreds of winter weather records have been 
broken in the U.S. in the last three weeks.
