By the way, I just checked the weather in Paris, France. It's in the 70's all week. So much for global warming ...

Two weeks ago, it was in the 90s......my friends called from Cologne.


Ted, this may come as surprise to you, but Cologne, in spite of 'Eau de Cologne' is not in France but in Germany (Köln).

Ted, > If we are the cause, then as temps rise we will die off which will result in less pollutants in the air. However, if the rise in temps is natural, then this may be our extinction ticket.

We'll be fine. Humans are incredibly adaptable.

I used to pride myself on being weather-tolerant. From humid summers in D.C. to cold, windy winters in upstate NY, I could take it all.

Then I came to Orange County. Now I'm like, "OMG it's 85! I'm suffering!" Or "Wow no wonder it's so cold out. It's 55 degrees!"
