Dueling headlines

From DRUDGE REPORT come the following two.

Bloomberg compares climate change to terrorism: Warming 'has the potential to kill everybody'...

versus

Snowiest winter on record in Wisconsin...

Humans adapt to temperature differences. And it's easier to adapt to heat in a low-tech environment than it is to cold. (Don't believe me? Contrast the population of, say, Africa, to upper Canada. At it's peak, the Inuit culture did some darn sophisticated things with what they had to hand - which wasn't much.)

So I think Mayor Bloomberg's spent too much time with AlGore.

Something else I've noticed in some of the Global Warming stuff, which may not be typical, is that their data points seem to be exhibiting a cutoff date of 2005 or so. Kind of odd to ignore the last couple of years.. unless they'd completely nullify the argument.
