The weather can not be accurately predicted 5 days out; two decades is pure fantasy. -- Jim Pennino

I've noticed that the most popular phrases describing the supposed warming warnings are "likely", "could", "might" and "perhaps". "Maybe" if some of the predictions of the Global Warming crew ever come true they'll start using stronger language. -- dvus
