"global warming my arse"

well large scale global warming will infact cause an ice age because it will melt the polar ice caps and thus cool down the gulf stream which is most of whats keeping us warm and we will be having alot more snow and a fair few of us will die

just to cheer you up a bit btw it wouldnt be as severe or fast as teh film the day after tomorrow and i doubt most of you will see it in its later stages hell i probably wont but while its happening albeit slowly it will be cooling down the gulf stream and thus we will be getting more cold weather and snow

sorry but i had to lol

global warming people want it both ways.

If its sweltering in summer, its global warming.

If its freezing in winter, its global warming.

explain please.......

Im pretty sure that I was taught that 400 years ago, the thames stopped freezing over in winter. That was a good clear 200 years before the industrial age. So, what happened there then?

20,000 years ago, GB was under ice. So. what was that ? Mammoth fart methane?

Is it that mankind is so arrogant that it thinks earth has always been as it is now, and that it should never change..... that from our couple hundred years of recording weather, as we see changes, its gotta be something wrong...... could it just be that the earth has always had a changing climate and we just might have to adapt?


On the snow front, we had about 1cm in northants this AM and one or two bursts in the afternoon. Its all gone now.

Thing is, in my 46 years I think I saw more snow as a kid - so perhaps thats global warming as we seem to get less now. However, if I had lived in Cornwall, Mark is telling me that Id be getting more 'later in life'. So, 250 miles away, the inverse is happening.

Pretty selective, this global warming thingy.

I may possibly agree on both. Ive been to cornwall several times, but I wonder if you have ever been to Northants to compare

Newquay was looking pretty crappy last time I went..... at least in Northants we have Silverstone, most of the worlds leading racing manufacturers, and corby (rockingham) oval..... shame is it comes with the rest of corby too

Newquay always was crappy and always will be.
I go there once a year to a trade show,which is crappy as well.
Hopefully it'll be snowing in a few weeks and I'll be able to avoid it.

didnt seem as crappy first time I went as a kid of 11....... perhaps I was more easily pleased then.

Northants - On the downside, you would be pretty hard put to find a place selling cream teas in an emergency around here, but perhaps more likely to find a dixons, currys, halfords, Argos or whatever

I lived in Northamptonshire for 24 years so kinda figure i know what it's like there.
Donington Park is better than Silverstone any day of the week

And that's a reason? I think you'd be hard pushed to find a non-genericised shopping experience anywhere. If Wolverhampton didn't have them I'd be proud.

But we do.

So I'm not.


Before global warming became fad of the day, we studied world temperature patterns in A Level Geography. We were shown graphs of how temperature has fluctuated in a cyclical fashion for gazzilions of years. We were also told that we were on an up at the moment (mid 80's) that followed this pattern exactly and would continue to do so for some years to come (can't remember the time frame - possibly somewhere in the 100's)

And hey! Whaddya know - That's exactly what's happened.

These issues get grabbed by the PC squad, or rather "New-Age Puritans" and anyone who dares question them is an outsider.


There was a chap from a Danish University (I think) who wrote a book questioning this whole global warming malarky, and these zealots were practically foaming at the mouth, screaming "WITCH!"


Anyway - I like snow. And sunshine.


Good mental health relies on the ability to embrace change as a natural phenomena. So: Enjoy!


Neil.

I totally agree - saw the 1993 F1 races at both circuits. Its only the Silverstone BRDC mafia that keeps it there - on merit Donnington wins hands down.

Its still nearer the civilisation of Northamptonshire than cornwall
