#7 Too bad the Vikings have emasculated themselves on the altar of PC - we could use them about now. Odin and Thor must be cringing in shame.

#10 Let me get this straight:
It was this warm 1000 years ago and everything was fine. In fact the Vikings spread out all over the world. But now that it is happening again we are all going to die?

#14 M'Lady Sjofn (named after a Norse goddess) and I named our son Leif after Leif Ericsson, because, like the Leif of Old, he was a lad of the north (spawned above the Arctic Circle), and he knew where he was going, and he was tough.

In those ancient days, the Vikings weren't wussified, and did not know what PC was. Yeah, the got carried away sometimes, but they went places and did things. Across the hostile north Atlantic in pretty small boats. They took advantage of Global Warming, not beat their gums about it. And their CO2 producing bonfires were second to none. Hear that, Utility Bill Al?
