Is that volcano one for real? It sounds like a practical joke to me.

IF there is global warming, I don't believe it is man-caused, and I don't believe there is anything man can do to stop it.

I am not at all sure that global warming is any more than just the limited memory span of human beings who can't remember a period that has been warmer than the last five years.

But...

At my forestry 40th reunion this weekend, the current dean complained that the average temperature at the university was five degrees warmer in the last five years and that if the trend continues you won't be able to ski at the ski run in 30 years.

I saw with my own eyes yesterday and today several muskrat ponds dried up that have only dried up one other time in the memory of local old timers. They are actually glacial kettles, where blocks of ice melted away during the last ice age.

Something is going on, but I don't know what it is.
