Date Posted: 11:05:07 04/10/07 Tue In reply to: Bev 's message, "No you are not open minded you say absolutely that global warming is not man made" on 10:07:31 04/10/07 Tue The earth might/probably will be hit by a comet or asteroid. You got any ideas what we should do about that. Tinfoil hats will not be the answer. Maybe we should all move a mile underground. We need common sense not alarmists. And you still haven't said what we should do about the 450 coal fired power plants being built in China...not to mention what is going on in India. Buying phoney carbon credits to make ourselves feel better won't cut it. Maybe we all have to turn off the lights and heat and AC and walk everywhere we go and shut down all our industry and put those union workers on the unemployment line. BTW: THIS WEEK (8-14 APR): Last year was record warm, this year record cold! April is currently tracking as the coldest April in 113 years - a dramatic change from last years #1 warmest ever. Even after some late month moderation, April 2007 will likely keep the month in the top 7 coldest in history. The Southwest is the one exception, but even here temperatures will cool dramatically late in the week. And, the snow is not over! Short range computer models hint at the possibility of a stronger snow storm from Colorado to Wisconsin late in the week into the weekend. This will be the heavy wet variety. The week overall is expected to show the greatest change toward wetter weather in two years - another very big negative for retail sales and for early planting of this years Corn and Bean crop. Weather Trends had forecast this to be the coldest April in 7 years and the wettest in 3 years. It will very likely be the coldest in 10 years and wettest in three. On a more uplifting note, Al Peterlin, Weather Trends International VP, reminds growers, “Planting rates can accelerate quickly after a slow start. Consider 1998 and 2005. In 1998 only about 15 percent of the crop was in the ground by the end of April, in 2005 only about 30 percent. Still, by the last week of May, 93 to 95 percent of planting was complete and final yields were strong.” http://www.agweb.com/get_article.aspx?pageid=135336&src=gennews I'm in S. WI right now and we are expecting 5 to 6 inches of snow tonight and some of the lakes are starting to freeze over again. Iceage coming? Doesn't global warming mean it's supposed to get hot....or at least warm??? We had lots of ducks on the ponds and marshes around here a week ago but they have all gone somewhere as those ponds and marshes have enough ice to walk on now. When I was in the AZ desert this winter the weather was nice but quite a bit cooler than normal. I also was on the Pacific ocean shore this winter and the water level was exactly where it was when I was there as a kid. How long am I going to have to wait for it to come up into the streets of LA. Also, a few years ago there was much worry about the water levels in the great Lakes being too high and people were concerned their lake frontage was going to disappear into the water. Now they are worried about how far out it is to the water. > You fight against that thinking with your whole >being.
