I would not tie global warming into this issue.................numerous
severe hurricanes were predicted last year by the global warming
alarmists,
riding the coat tails of the 2005 season, yet their predictions fell
flat.

Hurricane prediction is far from being an exact science. The
predictions were not all that bad... 9 tropical storms, 5 hurricanes,
and 2 major hurricanes aren't the big numbers that they predicted, but
then..... they didn't predict the El Niño event nor the large dust
storms from the African continent that shaded the sea surface and
reduced water temperatures.

Don't let that one year lull you into complacency.
So what are the alarmists predicting for this year?

May I quote you when thier doom and gloom prediction fall short once again?
Sure.

May I, then, assume that you will wholeheartedly accept that global
warming is affecting hurricane production if they are correct in their
predictions?

5 years does not make a trend when dealing with the Earth's climate.
