Is it getting warmer, or it just my imagination?

The Senate has its share of fools, as does each branch of government, but Senator Inhofe of Oklahoma is top ranked! He has decided to pursue the idea that all facts being circulated about global warming are simply statements without any scientific basis and are calculated to cause hysteria. The press is blamed as well as all environmentalists. Although the majority of scientists around the world now agree that we are facing the unknown effects of such warming; for the Senator…it isn’t even happening!

For myself…I use the less scientific method of my personal recollections of history. It used to be a fact that when dove hunting season rolled around on September 1st, the dove were usually well on their way to Mexico. A cold front would move through in late August and convince the dove to get moving. Not so for the past 4 or 5 years. The storms we used to see in August are just not happening anymore. Not at all scientific, but it seems to agree with the majority view.

I wouldn’t say that the Senator is closed minded… one has to have a mind to have it closed.
