    HTH, BIDI.
    My dog is a joyous and pleasant creature, but occasionally, through no fault of his own, the poor beggar will pick up a flea or two. I wonder if the thoughts of those irrepressible little bugs, and you have to admire their tenacity in what must be difficult circumstances, ever turn to the idea that they're controlling the direction and speed of travel of the forest of hair which they inhabit.

    Much in the same way that some people may believe they are the driving intellect in a debate.

    Did you do your homework? Read Kuhn and Popper yet?

    Yes you will be. You're too insignificant to start a rebellion.
    The AGW conspiracy will oppress and tax you to the hilt.
    You are the AGW conspiracy's Biatch.
    Now bend over and take what's coming to you like the gimp you are.

    Anyhoo, Northern Europe is predicted to warm most rapidly in winter, and before you jump in with the obvious knee-jerk response, I would point out that seven out of the last 10 European winters (and 10/10 summers btw) have been warmer than the long term average. Climate is like that. Long term.

    Right so if I win the lottery and there's a Scottish Ski resort for sale, I should laugh and give it a wide berth, but if there's 200 acres of land for sale with the right soil, I should buy it, and plant grape vines and olive trees on it and cash in on selling fine scottish wines and olive oil.



    At last, the science is useful!

    Whatever. You left off a link to the wiki article, here t'is. Global cooling - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Concern peaked in the early 1970s, partly because of the cooling trend then apparent (a cooling period began in 1945, and two decades of a cooling trend suggested a trough had been reached after several decades of warming), and partly because much less was then known about world climate and causes of ice ages. Although there was a cooling trend then, climate scientists were aware that predictions based on this trend were not possible - because the trend was poorly studied and not understood (for example see reference[11]). However in the popular press the possibility of cooling was reported generally without the caveats present in the scientific reports.
    An article in Time, another in Newsweek, couple of books. Perhaps the moral is 'Don't believe all you read in the press'?

    see, what you are failing to understand, is that some of us looked at that stuff at the time. It was the latest news to us.

    we did not have hindsight , google, computers, or ready access to the literature. we didnt even have digital watches.

    This was the latest truth. except it wasnt true.

    So for people like me, who have lived through several cycles of your bullsh1t, you are going to have to persuade me, you are going to have to try a lot harder. we will not be bullied or browbeaten any more
