Default Doom and Gloom

Where's the beef? Al Gore warned us about increased hurricane
activity due to global warming! NOAA predicted doom and gloom in May for
the 2007 season!
So, as the 2007 season winds down, its been a non event! Like one of
the mildest (like 2006) on record!
C'mon Al, when can I expect the 20 foot rise in sea level?

You mean like the continuing drought in the South East and the wild fires in
California?

Santa Anna and El Nino are the 2 prevalent phenomenons that control that
kind of weather on the left coast. Its been happening that way since
long before us eruopeans set foot here. And the FBI says the fires, or
at least some of the significant ones, were set by arsonists.
Doesn't anyone remember anything about the "Great Dustbowl" of the
1930's? Just in case you haven't been educated, there wasn't any
refrigerant being released into the air in great quantities then. Yet
that drought lasted for years, not months. Its a natural thing, get it?

Detective friend in Cal says best guess is that firefighters set the
fires!

California history.

1. Cedar Fire, San Diego County, October 2003. 15 killed, 110,000
hectares burnt, 4,787 structures destroyed.


And that one is about 1/2 the size of the Biscuit complex fire of
2002 in Northwestern California and Southwestern Oregon.
The major difference is that only about a dozen structures were
destroyed in the Biscuit fire, and much of the area within the
perimeter didn't actually burn.

The Biscuit fire, in turn, was only about 1/3 the size of the
Yellowstone fire (1.4million acres or 566,000 hectares).

These California fires aren't really amongst the largest western
wildfires---they just have the largest numbers of structures lost.



2. Tunnel Fire, Alameda County, October 1991, 25 killed, 640 hectares
burnt, 2,900 structures destroyed.

3. Old Fire, San Bernardino County, October 2003, 6 killed, 36,000

4. Jones Fire, Shasta County, October 1999, 1 killed, 10,000 hectares

Clearly you are not selling a book, movie, or trying to get a grant

I know. I usually try to steer away from these religious discussions but
sometimes it gets so frustrating how people can be led like sheep to the
slaughter - to believe anything some religious (yes, politics is
practiced today just like a religion, so why not just call it what it
is?) nutcase lke Bishop Al Gore tells them. And the masses just nod
their pious heads and continue bleeting the same nonsense as if its true.
