It's a personal attack if you expose his lies...

Now how could that be, I though it would just get warmer and warmer. Could it be those mitigating factors we don't know about again. Maybe that is why people think the Doom And Gloomers are getting ahead of themselves when they talk about taking drastic measures in the name of global warming.
I favor a reasonable, level headed approach to it. I do not think we must jump out of the frying pan and into the fire(economically) to fix things. I think we have time, and can do it at a pace that will not ruin us, and send us into a depression that will make todays economy look like the good old days. Yet kirk would have you believe I am just a denier who does not even believe global warming is a problem at all.

No not for being hot... We are breaking record low highs. For those that don't understand. We don't just record the highest high and the lowest low but the lowest high and the highest low. Oregon has had several lowest highs fall this year. We peaked at 69 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday this week.
