Living on the "fall line" in Richmond, VA and 70 miles from the closest point in the Chesapeake Bay, my home's location was oceanfront property a million or so years ago. Evidence of this abounds from the rounded river rocks on the top of the hill to the sea shells in the escarpments. I'm guessing a few million years ago, dinosaurs with matches caused global warming.
Richmond's weather record? Kind of hard to explain Gore based on past history after you read this. Richmond Times-Dispatch Jul 18, 2006 107 degrees Hottest day on record: Aug. 6, 1918 119 Number of days reaching 100 degrees or higher since 1897.

For Gore to say that there is no debate among scientists is a complete fabrication.

Always liked the tagline at the bottom of his emails and which is featured on the Institutes weather webpage that he maintains - "Climate's what we expect, but weather's what we get." http://meteora.ucsd.edu/weather.html From a report on NBC in San Diego a few weeks ago (the reporterette gets the last name wrong): http://www.nbcsandiego.com/news/9443185/detail.html "...Climatologist Larry Riddles says the evidence in inconclusive, however. "I haven't seen anything yet that would make me believe global warming caused by man is happening," Riddles said..." _______________________________________________ F500 mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change options please visit: http://f500.org/mailman/listinfo/f500 *** Please, DO NOT send unsubscribe requests to the mailing list! ***
