Gee I believe you are onto something. When I was a kid, 75 years ago, we
had snow on the ground that came up to my butt. Today it seldom get over my
knees. LOL

LOL, not sure where YOU live, but where I am we've had the biggest snow
storms in the last 100 years all in the last 10. At the same time our
average Winter temperatures have been above normal.

I'm sure you are kidding as any educated person will realize the truth. In
case someone think breaking records is a must take a week of summer
temperatures such as :

85 85 85 105 88 90 87 Note that the 105 is a record high for
July

The next year, the same week the temperatures are:
90 90 93 90 89 94 92

No record broken, but much more heat.

The wrong thing to do is to ignore it. The right thing to do is to try to
figure out the real cause.

The alarmists would have us living in caves. Like most issues, the real
solution is probably middle ground. If you have a sensible choice of a
little conservation, some reasonable and sensible pollution controls, no
harm will be done. Possibly, no good will be done regarding global warming,
but certainly no harm comes from turning out some lights and using less fuel
in our cars.

We complain about the price of gas, but continue to use just as much as we
did last year and the year before that and the year before that. If we all
got together and reduced demand by 5%, the price would drop and civilization
as we know it will continue on. No one want to be first. No one want the
inconvenience, no matter how small. Forget your constitutional right to own
a Hummer and Navigator, but look at the reality of them. Do we need that
much space? I'm not advocating bringing back the Hillman Minx in their
place, but a Lacrosse, Camry, Impala would be an acceptable substitute in
90%+ cases.

I live in Texas. I've been looking for a production EV since 1982. I had an
11 mile round trip to work. The only thing I have seen is things like the
GEM. Don't blame me, blame GM, Ford, and Chrysler.
