    My favourite statistic is that most men* on this planet have more than the average number of testicles.

    If pushed, i'd say my favourite average is the median.

        I saw that extreme cold is causing Americans to buy record amounts of heating oil.

        Seems like Global Warming is entering a positive feedback loop there.

          That an increase in energy in the global system causes more extreme weather - both hot and cold - is also a concept they find terribly difficult to grasp.

              When they convinced the public that "global warming" could make it colder, they realised they can sell any old guff and people will swallow it.

                It will make it colder, warmer or the same. Based on that argument, you cannot deny it is here already.
