You can explain it to Neo, but he still won't get it.


True to form, Neo appears to be as uneducatable as ever:

Is all that global warming the enviro-fascists have been promising?

He says snowfall amounts will be “somewhere in the 20-30 centimetre range for Toronto” and area.

But as you go east, says Mr. Merideth, “upwards of 30-50 centimetres is possible.”


Um ... Neo? What part of "climate change" and "weather extremes" do you just not get?

Tune in next year when Neo exclaims, "Hey! It was cold today! So much for that global warming, eh?"

I haven't heard any weathercaster or climatologist say that this is the coldest winter in memory. Has anyone made such a claim?

Snowfall amounts tell us how much moisture is coming through the system, not how cold it is.

As I recall, Environment Canada was saying it could be the coldest in many years around the beginning of the winter, but I haven't heard them continue along that vein. What they also said was it was going to be cold enough that the snow wouldn't melt much between storms, and we'd end up with horribly high accumulations.

Heh. Good thing that didn't happen, eh?

These people are terminally stupid - and ignoring them just seems to embolden their utter and hopeless lack of intelligence.

I just turned on the television. Now I know why you're talking about snow. Enjoy it while you can.

If lots of snow is the sign of a cold climate, lots of rain must be the sign of a hot one, right?

Someone needs to teach this people that "global warming" doesn't mean a change in the temperature at which water freezes.

I bet Neo's the type of idiot who would visit Seattle on the one day a year that the sun shines and be all pissed off when he experiences the remaining 364 as dreary, wet and drizzly. Probably blame it on the liberal climate conspiracy too.

I first visited Ireland the week the sun shined. Imagine my consternation on my return. I feel for Neo.
