Rain, Rain Go Away
Sunny all day in Rosarito, then clouds in the afternoon and then driving rain,
The good Mexico weather site was accurate after all.

My Southern Grandmother
Always told me that it was a good idea to talk about the weather instead of politics.
"It don''t make me no never mind". is how she navigagated through her family that contained conservatives and liberals.

Your Southern Grandmother sounds like my Southern Grandmother. Example: One time she heard a rumor that she didn't think was true, and when she
found out it WAS true, she blurted out "Well, butter my butt and call me a bisquit!"
The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Slammed into San Marcos at 3:20 this afternoon with thunder that shook the Kaiser building I was inside of! A half hour later lightning so close to my truck I was driving that it blinded me for a second.
Love the drama in our weather... it is so rare here in Southern California!

The first line makes the rest laughable enough that I hope some kid with a mind points it out...
First line: "Our world is always changing..."
Next paragraph:
"The Earth is getting warmer because people are adding heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere, mainly by burning fossil fuels.." (so being warm and
cooking food are bad things now?)
WHICH IS IT?
FACT: The climate changes and always has, from forces FAR greater than man... We have had ice ages and global warming after, which was a good thing...
This has happened before fossil fuels and even before man!
It is so very sad the brainwashing by leftists, old hippies, or just people who ignore facts.

It didn't take me long...
Climate Literacy Items from Hawai`i Survey
[correct answer]
% scoring correctly
A) Climate change will cause some places to get wetter, while others
will get drier [true] 97.7%
B) If we were to stop burning fossil fuels today, global warming
would stop almost immediately [false] 93%
==========================================================
(I added the A and B because I wasn't sure if it would be clear when I pasted the first to questions [and the answers] here)
No need to keep showing you, but MAN cannot change the Earth's climate, when a natural occurance such as volcanic eruption (just one) pollutes
thousands of tons more than man could ever create... and volcanoes have been errupting for all time.

Need, Want
It matters NOT.
It will or won't regardless of anyone's desires or opinions.
Unlike Politics. Which you CAN do something about.

Seriously! 
But just like we can pray for rain... we can also pray to God to save America, before it is hurt anymore!

yep, dumping toxic chemicals into our water ways should be legalized based on your logic

There you go again... what does toxic chemicals have to do with heating your home in the winter or driving a firetruck or delivering food to the
elderly... all things done with petroleum products that are GOOD.
If you want to live like they do in the third world, that is your choice... Don't make the rest of us suffer because of some idealism you want to
believe.
Al Gore lied to us, he inverted the climate graph from reality and then he told kids we were killing polar bears... real nice.
Science is a constant search for truth... despite what the Greens have said, the discussion is not over and nothing is conclussive.
Now, I wish you peace and happiness... and prosperity (we both could use more of that, right?)!
