It's good for a laugh, though!
You want another good laugh? The medieval warming period, where the climate was much warmer then today, was a period of good times, population booms and an explosion of human civilization, and yet the AGW hoaxers claim it will be hell on earth.

If you want to see what the was like during a period of global warming, try reading history about it, instead of buying into the al Gore hype of gloom and doom.

I never understood how some can be so arrogant while their position is firmly under the foot of another. /shrug

Heck, if he simply took the time to look at the historical records, he would see his claim is pure agenda politicking. I don't get it, what the heck is wrong with people? They act as if they are mentally damaged. /sigh

Sort of like thinking that a door opening causes a key to be inserted in the door lock.

Stopping your car causes the brake lights to come on, and sweating causes the temperature in the room to increase.

The only thing I will admit is that my grandma said it used to snow more when she was a child. Al Gore's anecdotes are no more significant than my grannies.

In order to sound intelligent and in the know, I find it useful to blame everything negative that happens on global climate change.
