If it gets cold, it's AGW. If it gets wet, it's AGW. If it gets dry, it's AGW. If it gets icier, it's AGW. If it gets less icy, it's AGW. I'm sure if we descend into an ice age it'll be blamed on AGW. When the majority of predictions of the AGW crowd fail to materialize we get scientific double-talk. With science like that who could doubt AGW? I'm sick of it all. -- dvus
