Is that a side-effect of global warming?

Obviously, the Dems would blame George Bush for the increase in home heating oil costs, and tell us how Bush did it to exterminate minorities.

You even have to ask what would happen?

Forget the MINI Ice age! Try a full bore one like what will happen in 15,000 years.

Everything North of SoutDakota will be under a mile or more of ICE.

The same thing that happened during the last mini-ice age (IIRC it lasted from about the late 1200s to around 1850)...some crop shortages in some areas and a bit of immigration to warmer climates.  The mini-ice age was not a civilization killer.

Winter Montana wear would enjoy an upsurge in sales in northern latitudes.

If you want to do some reading up wikipedia has some good articles under Little Ice Age and the Year Without a Summer (1816).

You mean its not already?!?  
OMFG what am I going to do?
Will rice and beans keep for 15000 years or should I get in the group buy from Mtn House?  
Should I buy an SKS, an AK 47 or an AR 15?  
What should I use as a CCW a S&W 642 or a Keltec 9mm?
What shotgun should my wife carry across the frozen tundra?
How much gas should I hoard?
Do crampons come in designer colors?
How many rounds of .22 LR should I have on hand?
If my BOB is frozen solid inside my BOV will I be SOL?
Can zombies handle extremes of temperature?
Does tinfoil melt in the rain or should I get some extra felt to keep my ears warm when its -20 below the donut?
If Glocks blowup when they get too hot should I get one anyway because it will be cold?
Which is better a .45, a .40 or a 9mm and which will bring down the wolly mamoth or saber-tooth cat inside my cave?
Which knife should I carry for skinning walruses?
Please answer my questions as the next 14,990 years will go by like a shot and I'll be screwed when the Wal-Mart is sold out of all the goodies!

There is theory that global warming could cause an ice age.

the "Global Thermohaline Conveyor Belt" thingy.

Is that similar to the "gotcha" that Mother Nature has provided to the environweenies?
40 years of environmental cleanup has resulted in cleaner air, which allows more sunlight to reach the Earth's surface, which provides a warming effect.
In short? Global warming is the fault of the enviroweenies.



How would I know? ... I didn't think that thing up.

Weather heats up, gets cold. Then heats up again, gets cold again. The cycle will go on and on. Personally im not worried about it. Its not like it will be a radical change killing masses of people. People will just learn to live colder weather.

No it doesn't.  It deals with a completely impossible chain of events, assuming we dont' get knocked off our orbit...and superwolves.

Mini-ice age is like a 1-2degree average yearly temp drop over just a few hundred years.  Some glacial expansion but nothing like covering the majority of the northern hemisphere in an ice sheet.  Most likely culprit of mini-ice age...slight changes in solar output over a time.

Except for the fact that hurricanes are heat driven, which is why they quickly weaken and then die when they get over land.  You don't have hurricanes with snow.


Besides, all the enviroweenies have promised us year-round summer.  So it can't happen.

And loads of horseshit stink… You plant roses in horseshit so roses must stink.

Change the lie to fit all possibilities.

It gets warmer blame global warming…
It gets colder blame global warming…
It is Tuesday blame global warming…

The computer models that ALL these predictions are based on are WRONG… If a computer model that is used to predict future events is not reversible (when run in reverse predicts what actually happen in the past) it is worthless for predicting anything because the model is WRONG.

NONE of the computer models used to predict global warming and it supposed effects are reversible… meaning they are not reliable and meaningless.

You're right. I stand corrected.

I was just picturing the northern areas frozen over part, and didn't think about the entire cause/effect scenario. They did partially blame global warming though, as one of the problems in the chain of events.

I was referring more to the outcome than the weather part of it... a bunch of ill prepared people running around like headless chickens until "the man" comes to rescue them. Other people exploiting the situation. Setting all the blame on the government.
