Well, that's my point. People go around saying "global warming isn't real", when what they really mean is "I don't think global warming is caused by people". The whole debate is bad enough without confusing it even further with inaccurate terminology.

I guess your right. I should have explained myself better. It made sense at the time.
I wonder what the world will be like after the next ice age. Pretty much all we've built will be demolished by the millions of tons of ice covering it. It'd be like the world pressed the Reset button and we have a fresh start.

In a decade or two you might be stocking up on Parka's and Snowshoes. When that happens, the only thing I'll have to say to you is: Welcome to MY World!

Still works though whenever Firefox has a glitch I always think of Eastwood about to black out in the cockpit of that silly looking plane...or in this case some Flarite making the same strained facial expressions as he's posting.
Yet, I'm honored you took the time to search for that- I'd forgotten it myself.

Isn't it 'welcome to his world', as you will be push so far south that we will all become USians. Fuck this global warming is pretty scary stuff. Going to have to learn how to naturally say thing like " Yee Haw" "Can I borrow your gun" "Sure the iceage is punishment from god" " Do our kids really have to be brainwashed with that mantra every morning?" It's going to be hell.

What I meant by "my" world was snow and Ice and below 0 temps for half the year.
We got something in common, he lives on Americas Wang, and I live in a town named after a Dick Piercing...

Actually, by then most of Florida will be underwater. I plan on finding a nice high sone crag or escarpment upon which to build mysolar/wind/geothermal-powered home with the full greenhouse and the nearby artesian spring.
Architecture is interesting, but architecture geared toward surviving the next ice age is really fun! I only hope enough knowledge and smart people survive -- without becoming Morlocks -- that when things ease up again, we can sort of pick up where we left off. As it stands, iff too much is lost, then we're screwed, because a second Industrial Revolution would be practically impossible without readily exploitable coal and oil deposits.

Florida may be underwater at first due to the heat wave, but by the following ice age, it will definitely be high and dry.
