[AT] Good tractor day

[charliehill]

When I was a child it got a lot colder in the winter but it also got a lot 
hotter in the summer.  The seasons were more defined.  I live 15 miles S/E 
of where I grew up so the difference is not because I moved.  It's just the 
ebb and flow of things and it will change again.  The avg temps are roughly 
the same.  The problem with the global warming crowd is they try to get too 
precise with data that is not nearly as precise.  It's like the joke us 
appraisers tell on ourselves except in reverse.  The insider joke is we 
measure with a micrometer, mark with chalk and cut with an axe.  Well the 
scientist are using data that was cut with an axe and marked with chalk and 
they are trying to measure it with a micrometer.   They may turn out to be 
right but if they are it's not because they can prove it.  It'll just be a 
lucky guess where they erred on the side of caution.

====================================



Scientist claim that the more stable weather that we have had for
about the past 80 years was an abnormally smooth time and that more
radical weather with wider swings is more "normal" in the long term...
