In my opinion, I think that the most cynical aspect of the whole
Church of Global Warming, Al Gore Synod is that they've take one
problem, pollution (which is real and much more of a threat in my
opinion) and cross-pollinated it to Global Warming.

There seems to be plenty of evidence that we are in a warming cycle of
some sort. The questions are, what is causing it, and can anything be
done about it? There's lots of honest controversy on those points.

Does anyone remember the sunspot maximum of 1957 and 1958? It was a
block buster. The whole thing could have started then as far as
anyone knows.

Heck, Western Canada, doesn't like the eastern part either.

I just pulled out my SWL logs from that time and the QSL cards are
from all over the planet.

Several of my favorites are small, 1k AM stations on nightime low
power. I also have SWL QSL cards from France, Ireland, West Germany
and a couple of other countries - all AM stuff.

The funniest one was from Liechtenstein. The engineer of the station
was a former Armed Forces Radio type and he wrote a three page letter
about living in a country the size of a postage stamp.

It's still funny now as it was when I was 12. :)

I got my ham license in 1957 when I was 12 years old. I remember
coming home from school at lunch time in 1958 and hearing west coast
and european stations on the 6 meter band as loud as the locals, all
due to high sun spot levels of course.

Here's another datapoint for the greate climate debate of 2007, this
one from a professor at MIT:

Well, we can't believe him because he's a denier and mere apostate
with no qualifications to judge.
