The fact that life adapted and survived is enough to suggest that it probably wasn't bad.

I don't give a rat's behind what "every credible climatologist" says! And what the hell makes them "credible" anyway - your agreement with what they say? I remember when these so-called "credible climatologists" were warning about a coming ice age.

It's all much ado about nothing.

Is it true that the overall global temperature rose a degree or two over the last 100 years? Yes. Does that mean we should all of a sudden just rip apart the very fabric of Western Civilization to conform to untested proposals from a bunch of insane environmentalists who are not themselves living the lifestyle they insist we all must live? No.

Talk to me when Al Gore and his cult all successfully live their lives according to what they expect from the rest of us - and that includes no fossil fuels, no meat, etc.

A panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots in the air.

"Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife manual and tosses it over his shoulder.

"I'm a panda," he says at the door. "Look it up."

The waiter turns to the relevant entry and, sure enough, finds an explanation.

"Panda. Large black-and-white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves."
