#1 I didn't know AlBoer was in Korea.

Did they invite him (in which case it serves them right) or did he show up on his own (in which case may I recommend tar and feathers)?

#2 I think that AlHore has become a global phenomena at this point. Maybe we should consider firing him into deep space.

#3 Members of the Church of the Immaculate Global Warming are nothing if not devout. You could bury them in snow for 1000 years and they would still preach CO2 fire and brimstone.

#4 If it is that cold in South Korea, it must be brutal up North. Those people must really be suffering.

#5 If you take lot of ice cube and melt it, of course the water will be cold. That's what's happening to the pacific and gulf streams which is messing up the weather. As for the reason, I can't say if it's man or nature causing it but it is real and it is happening.

#6 Tallinn, Estonia, reporting.
We're at 64 centimeters, and climbing (about 2.5 feet). We've set a new record for accumulation.
It snowed every day since Al Gore visited Copenhagen. Thanks, Al!

#7 "If you take lot of ice cube and melt it, of course the water will be cold."

Not colder than the ice was. Sheesh.

#8 Phith Dingle6292, the glaciers melt a bit every summer and refreeze every winter. I understand that this year the ice caps are thicker and more extensive than a year ago, when the Anthropogenic Global Warming types were fussing about it, so I'm not sure how to understand your point. The world has incontrovertibly been warming up since the last ice age 10,000 years ago, and also since the Little Ice Age, which only ended in the early nineteenth century. This page has some graphs that put the whole thing into perspective for me. No doubt you'll find them a bit simplistic, but you must understand that I'm just a little suburban housewife with limited training in the hard sciences. (I can hear you, Frank G.)
