I'm not Harry, but that is funny.
Funnier yet is the fact that global warming is nothing more than inept
scientists looking for gov grant money.
Remember the holes in the ozone layer over the poles? All doom and gloom!
In the 70's it was the coming ice age!
Now the new rage seems to be CO2 causing the oceans to turn into acid!
Back to global warming. Yes, we are in a warming trend and have been for
the last 18 thousand years. Since the last ice age. The warming trend was
probably triggered by, yup, mastodon gas and, of course, caveman fires to
roast the mastodon!
On the serious side, it's all mother nature (not humans) and their ain't
nothing anyone can do about it.

While driving the other day I heard a report on the radio that some
researchers studying global warming have discovered a potential cause that
outweighs all the other theories. The claim is wild fires, or more
accurately the fact that we have developed effective ways to combat and
extinquish them. Uncontrolled, a wildfire will burn until it naturally runs
out of fuel in the area it is burning, or is naturally extinquished. That
area won't seriously burn again for many years.
The study by the researchers claim that by artifically extinquishing the
fires, we are inadvertantly allowing more fires to start and the report
cited a marked increase in the number of wild fires over the years and their
corrolation to the average earth temperature increase during the same time
period.
