• Pat Flood (@rebarcock) passed away 9/21/25. Pat played a huge role in encouraging the devolopmemt of this site and donated the very first dollar to get it started. Check the thread at the top of the board for the obituary and please feel free to pay your respects there. I am going to get all the content from that thread over to his family so they can see how many people really cared for Pat outside of what they ever knew. Pat loved to tell stories and always wanted everyone else to tell stories. I think a great way we can honor Pat is to tell a story in his thread (also pinned at the top of the board).

global warming is old news, now it's global cooling

That's why they rebranded as "climate change" as to not continue to look like complete morons when we have record freezes.

When I was a kid, it was all "the rain forests are burning down" and "in 20 years there won't be any rain forest left!"

Well, we are about 30 years removed from that and we sill have Rain Forests on fire. The only good thing I remember from that time was "think global act local" which is what I would apply to politics/management structure in this country. But, that's about it.
 
Wait until they have to admit that higher CO2 levels help "green" the planet.

 
I always get a good chuckle that anyone actually thinks we can impact the climate of this planet to the point that we irrevocably change it. The planet will wipe us out long before our carbon footprint does any lasting damage to earth.
