hurricane guesses are just that, guesses. They have lowered them 2x already because its been a low season. Probably will turn out to be a mild year.
Weather has been the best since I have been in MD for 7 years here.
GO global warming. Look how many of the problem areas on earth will be solved by a raise in sea level....
How come no one ever talks about the bennefits??? What if Antartica become tropical again?

WOW, so, if the NYC weather was below normal, that just erases all the concern... The problem is that all this is turned into a political discussion (because of Al Gore) and not into a real concern.
The global warming (caused by us or just a cycle) is a trend, not an occurence. It is obvious (at least to some of us that are more mature) that the weather patterns in last 10 years have changed from 30 years ago, or earlier in the 20th century. Yes, TX had mild summer this year, but then last 10 years were way above the normals... Last year I went skiing in WV to have 65F weather... So, the trend is definitely warmer...
Did we cause it (solely) and can we reverse it or slow it down -- that should be debated and invested in. Proving that Al Gore's movies or W's theories are right or wrong should not be the part of discussion...
