Maybe I just don’t understand. Global warming causes more and less hurricanes and tropical storms? More AND Less?!  It seems like just a couple years ago, just after Katrina kicked the folks in the Gulf square in the teeth, the experts told us that the next couple of hurricane seasons would be the worst we’d ever seen. Well, that didn’t happen the first year. Didn’t happen the next year either. So now, it will be not just be more hurricanes, but less hurricanes as well. How could they possibly be wrong with such intellectually sound reasoning such as that?

It reminds me of the rehab scene in Walk Hard: “I’m hot and I’m cold!”  “He’s hot, and he’s cold, Doctor!” “He needs more blankets, and less blankets!” 

There will be more and less hurricanes. Global temperatures will rise and fall. Glaciers will shrink and grow. The holes in the ozone layer get bigger and smaller. It’s all most of our faults and IQ’s are dropping everywhere!

It’s a freaking joke people! They are lying to us to generate grant money, because a mundane future only generates mundane funding! If a researcher wants big money for future research, they have to predict big problems for that future. It’s not science. It’s politics, and it’s socia(environmenta)lism, and we keep falling for it!

‘Fewer hurricanes’ as world warms

By Mark Kinver Science and nature reporter, BBC News The study suggests hurricanes could become less frequent Hurricanes and tropical storms will become less frequent by the end of the century as a result of climate change, US researchers have suggested. But the scientists added their data also showed that there would be a “modest increase” in the intensity of these extreme weather events.

Calling Katrina survivors ‘refugees’ stirs debate – Hurricane Katrina – MSNBC.com:

“It is racist to call American citizens refugees,” the Rev. Jesse Jackson said, visiting the Houston Astrodome on Monday. Members of the Congressional Black Caucus have expressed similar sentiments.

Jesse Jackson has never seen a word he didn’t like to call racist. This man, who portrays himself as a man of God, is probably the most divisive man in the country. He sits between the TV and the phone and just waits for a chance to use one to complain about the other, hoping to spew the word “racist” at the drop of an adverb.

Language is descriptive but also alive and generational. Each new generation seems to think the terms common among the last generation are not fit for their own generation. Soon, we will be out of combinations of letters to describe each other.

I therefore put forth that from now on those displaced in the aftermath of Katrina be called “DISCOKATs,” short for “DISplaced in their own COuntry by KATrina.” I will also no longer allow myself to be referred to by the racial slur “white,” and will forthwith be described as “Scottish-Slavik-English-Irish-Deutsch-Nordic-and a few other hyphens-American!”

Peace,
