What's also funny is that a little bit south in Newark, NJ, they've received about 2 inches of total snowfall this year.
I think it's a record for that area.

Yeah, but they're in Newark, so it all evens out.
especialy from my island in florida.
(sorry, I used to live in NY)
at least there is baseball ...
I, for one, have had enough!
Now collecting:
Topps Heritage
1957 Topps BB Ex+-NM
All Yaz Items 7+
Various Red Sox
Did I leave anything out?
ebay i.d. clydecoolidge - Lots of vintage stars and HOFers, raw, condition fully disclosed.

Now back to cards

I saw something on CNN that said that 2007 was the COLDEST year world wide since 2001...
Not saying I don't agree that somethings going on up there just disagreeing with those that think my house will be underwater in 5 years.

Exactly.
The study-guide that teachers get with the "An Inconvenient Truth" DVD
clearly explains the FACT. Also, my fourth-grade cloud study - in the 1950s -
laid out the science.
YET, we continue to hear "highly-educated" talking-heads on TV say, "If Al Gore
is right, why is it snowing so much?"
Global-warming may or may not be a coming problem, BUT citing "extreme snow"
as dispositive, is a losing argument. The WARMER it gets in Santaland, the more
ice melts, the MORE snow we will see in North America.
I love Colorado winters
03/04 & 05/06 topps black

<< <i>> "Global warning doesn't mean that in Minnessota will get any warmer, most likely will get colder. It means weather extremes"
Incorrect. If AGW is correct, it means global temperatures will increase. Period. If the theory is true, there's no escaping this fact. Greenhouse gases trap heat...and that heat has to go somewhere.
While in theory circulation changes can potentially cause some isolated areas to cool, that only happens if some other area gets even warmer to compensate.
Global warming emphatically does *not* simply translate into more extreme-weather events of all kinds. That makes the theory unfalsifiable -- anything and everything that happens can then be chalked up to GW. But unfalsifiable theories aren't science...they're faith.
> "Eventually all the ice will melt, just the scientist are screaming because it happens ten times faster, then anyone expected"
The latest estimates show Antarctica is gaining ice mass, and Greenland is losing it at the rate of 0.25% per century....meaning it will be wholly melted in roughly 4,000 years.
> "It *would* put some cities underwater, starting with New Orleans"
Stuff and nonsense. Much of New Orleans is already several feet below sea level. A six inch rise means only that, sometime in the next 100 years, we'll have to increase the existing levees (already 10-15 feet high in places) by an additional six inches.
Not exactly a huge problem, especially considering the level of technology we'll have access to in the year 2100.
60% of the Netherlands is below sea level, and they've been building dikes there for hundreds of years. If Holland can build thousands of miles of dikes with 19th-century technology, I'm sure we can handle a mere six-inch rise with 22nd-century tech. >>

At least its warmer
last month we had 3 straight days with 15+ inches each day. The record here (north of Hilo) is 39 inches in one day, now thats a little crazy
PS we also get snow too since we have the tallest mountain in the world and also the most massive mountain in the world right next to each other.
Mauna Kea ("White Mountain") Tallest Mountain in the World, 33,465' (from base under sea to summit)
Mauna Loa ("Long Mountain") Most Massive Mountain in the World, 10,000 cubic miles of mass, enough to cover the whole state of California in 600' of rock. This picture was taken from 2,000' level looking up at 14,000' where the snow is. Mauna Loa is so massive it doesnt even look like a mountain anymore.
I was stationed for a bit at Ft Drum NY - land of the "chosen frozen!"
35 below at New Years and the snow hits the ground in Nov and ya don't see the dead grass again till spring!
But it sure looks great in the Adirondacks in the summer!
It sure is nice in sunny San Antonio.
Sorry to hear about that - I took my snow blower with me to San Antonio - the moving guy thought it was for tilling the soil!
