I dunno guys- I remember going back to Richmond nearly 30 years ago, after we'd had that first REALLY ball-busting winter. They had a meteorologist on the radio, & he said the mild weather North America had enjoyed for the last 35-40 years then was coming to an end, & he foresaw cold winters, floods, droughts, hot summers, bad storms...All of which have come to pass.I don't doubt a bit all the pollution mankind has put into the air has hurt, but what about volcanoes? What about The Great Smoky Mountains? The haze you see there is a natural pollutant. W/all due respect to V.Pres Gore, I think we may just be going thru a normal heating/cooling cycle the earth goes thru. Nowadays we have all this sophisticated equipment to study stuff with,but a lot of it hasn't been in use long enuff for the scientists to get a really accurate reading on things.
