Default I have an opinion on global warming!

We're told that the unusally cold temps lately are a result of global
warming (ice caps melting).


This morning on NPR my son and I both noticed a subtle-but-important
shift in the nomenclature the "Global Warming" advocates are now
using. The argument is now being framed in terms of "Global Climate
Change", rather than "Global Warming" -- at least on NPR.

I guess the advocates of this pseudo-science got tired of being
ridiculed by folks who have been shivering through some of the coldest
weather on record. Now they can just sit back and say "What, it's
record-setting COLD? Hey, that's 'Global Climate Change' at work."

It's amazing how gullible some of the supposedly smartest people in
the world can be. Of course, this is happening in a society that
spends $7 BILLION dollars annually on...bottled *water*.

Marketing rules.
