HTClimate change runs in cycles...always has, always will. While I do believe we need to take care of our planet, I don't believe we should allow the government to hold us over the fire to establish the extreme measures they want to enforce over a controversial issue that is so poorly supported by scientific evidence.

By now, we're all familiar with the global warmists' attempt to explain away the record-breaking mid-Atlantic blizzards. Take this, for example, from the New York Times [emphasis added]:
"government and academic studies had consistently predicted an increasing frequency of just these kinds of record-setting storms, because warmer air carries more moisture."
So more snow fell from Philly to DC because the temperatures were warmer than normal during the blizzards? That got me wondering: just what were the temperatures in DC on the snow days, and how do they compare to the norm? And guess what?
