Climatology, the commoner's profession

Why is it that everyone seems to be a climatologist or scientist of some sort these days? Every time there is a sudden change of weather or a storm, at least one person always says, "Well, it must be global warming!" Everything is caused by global warming--hot weather, cold weather, any fluctuation in the norm. Just the other day, San Francisco was a little warm--GLOBAL WARMING shouted one of my teachers. Even those who shout that global warming causes massive hurricanes and superstorms are wrong. In fact, in a new study by Dr Knutson and colleagues from the National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) at Princeton, New Jersey, global warming does not cause an increase in hurricanes--rather, it would decrease the numbers and increase the strength.

Since when does the common man have the authority to link global warming to any local climate change? Global warming is now a scapegoat for our problems. Soon, our failing economy, the housing crisis, the "war on terror," and even celebrity divorces will be attributed to this massive evil.

Most common hobos are better educated than the libs. This is the Al Gore/Common Man theory of the libs, people who don't know anything can be respected and listened to by their equally liberal peers.

This is more of a comment on the blog than on this article, but I feel i must say it. This blog is nothing in comparison to The Best Page in the Universe: http://maddox.xmission.com/
--Also, update the picture of the week bitches.

its not my blog, i'm an onjective viewer of both blogs. And The Best Page in the Universe has better content.

The best page in the universe (purposely left uncapitalized) is a complete sin against ranting and blogs. Long reign the point/counterpoint.

The Best Page in the Universe is great. You sir are mistaken. Point/Counterpoint is nothing compared to it.
