Might have had better luck had it been called climate change from the start, or at least before the unusually cold winters that brought out the deniers in full force. Had "climate change" been the default, one could blame it for a bad winter, instead of the "global warming, lol" comments we got. Changing the terminology afterward only made it worse; the deniers consulted their inner conspiracy theorist and decided the timing was just too cute, strengthening their resolve instead of changing their minds. Miami could get a snowstorm and it wouldn't convince some people.slide_into_first wrote:It warms my heart when climate change denying red states get a changed climate.

Re: Random musings
Monsoon season in Az can see huge ammounts of rainfall in a single storm, it has been that way for centuries. Small sample size for yesterdays storm, even though it was the most rainfall ever recorded for a single day in Phoenix - over 3 inches - we more than doubled our total for the entire year, 250 days - in 6 hrs.slide_into_first wrote:It warms my heart when climate change denying red states get a changed climate.
But I get your point, to think we as humans have no effect on the climate of this planet is very short sighted.

Why is the nickname "Big Al" so prevalent? I have now met three people whose names are Al and are called "Big Al."

I probably laughed a little too hard at that overweight person struggling to get into their Honda Fit. Oh well, it's Friday.

Is a Fit for people who wanna get fit or for people who are already fit? Does it come with a Krispy Kreme Avoidance system?
