Quite likely, but I suspect no serious steps will be taken by any

know where the next "stable point" regarding the weather will be and
whether it is beyond the extremes of human survival.


No steps will be taken until enough people feel it is enough of a problem
to be worth bearing the inevitable pain of trying to do something about
it. I was hoping that the last week's events would help shift towards that
and away from the attitude 'global warning? Britain like the south of
France? Bring it on!'

But global warming was bringing mild wet Winters and hot dry Summers.


It was also bringing many more extreme events, which is precisely what we
are seeing.

So another thing the experts have got wrong, like the cause, unless the
Martians are generating lots of carbon dioxide as well, because Mars is
warming up also. Still yet another excuse to get more taxes from us, so
that politicians and civil servants can be sure of their inflation proof
pensions.


Well, I suppose I can still hope.


What, for an inflation proof pension!(:-)
