One would be more justified in drawing conclusions from the frequency of
April snowfalls, but even then it is wiser to take all the evidence into
account, rather than a single surrogate.


One shouldn't confuse weather with climate.

But...........in the UK we dont have climate just weather.

I remember when I was young the strange weather was blamed on the Atom
bomb, then neucular tests, then the rockets punching holes in the
ozone layer.


Don't forget acid rain, at one point we were all doomed because of that.


Also don't forget that all the world's "leader's" aircraft can fly from
wherever they are to Bali, but they don't create any greenhouse gases.
Neither do cruise missiles, tanks, bombs, warships, jump jets and stealth
bombers. It's just your fiesta, so stop it immediately, you hear?

Trends, fads, and sticks to beat us with, nothing more.
