More NA LEVO bullshirt. If global warming is happening, why in the H3LL
was it 27 degrees here this morning. For April 5th, that's not cold,
thats F*cking KLINK KLINK cold.

Charles of Schaumburg

Last summer I nearly lost my lawn due to 4 days of 105 degree weather. My
solar collectors on my roof nearly warped beyond functioning anymore.
Nobody was home to use the excess hot water. What a scorcher!
This coming summer is predicted to be much worse.
Global warming means unusual extremes and that's what I'm seeing here
where I live.

I'm just a few thousand short for installing a 8 kilowatt off-grid
system. It appears I will have enough sunshine now to make it a logical
investment. The bad news is I'll have to resort to a solar cover for my
pool to keep evaporation down. In the past I used to lose about 1/2 inch
a week. Last year I was losing 1 1/2 inch a week. My water usage went
through the roof!

Usually by now I'm setting out a few plantings in my raised bed garden.
Right now I don't know what the heck to plant. I hear the birds chirping
in the morning which tells me it's spring but the morning temperatures
are hovering above freezing.

Those birds aren't "chirping," they're cursing the f*cking cold!

Two days ago I watched the temperature dip to 27 degrees as the sun rose.
Yester noon the sun was out and it was snowing!
Mother Nature is PO.

We've got an oddball weather pattern here, too, which is probably also
affecting Schaumburg.

Is it GW? Maybe; GW's real but it's tough to predict exactly what's going
to result. I think we're going to be surprised. Often. And few of the
surprises, if any, will be pleasant ones.
Ya know what's funny, but not really? Some behavioral changes would reduce a
problem we already know exists, beyond a shadow of a doubt. It's agreed on
by everyone, the only exceptions being idiots who've been living in caves
since the 1960s. We've already made some changes to address this problem.
Expanding those changes would further address the problem, and would also
give us an edge, JUST IN CASE global warming turns out to be real enough for
everyone to agree on.

I won't name the KNOWN problem because you know what it is. Anyone who
doesn't....it's not even worth mentioning to them, so why bother?

I'd bet you have a leak.

I had the same thing until I had the pool resurfaced and they found
the leak while doing the work...

Pool? Who's got a pool.. You need to buy some carbon credits from me.

Do you take Pay Pal....

We will be more than happy to accept paypal. We do have an account and
we are taking orders, the phone lines are open.
Now can I get an offset if I don't run my air conditioning this
summer?

You can sell your offset back to me, in turn I will sell it at a profit
to JSB and take a tax writeoff.

I think we can go somewhere with this.
We could be just like Al Bore!

Nothing. Isolated data points do not a trend make.

If you set off in a canoe that already has water, it don't take much more to
sink it.
