I think that these articles are evidence of two things: 1. That the climate has varied over time, and it is always noticed by the media and the public. 2. Climate alarmism is nothing new (whether it's being blamed on natural forces blamed on man) I posted last month on a small article I found online at the NY Times archives. The interesting thing about this article is that it's the earliest reference I've ever seen of a someone who blames global warming on man-made causes. The article is from 1884, and is ironically under the heading of "Scientific Gossip". I realize that the GW alarmists could use this to further their cause because it would provide them some historic precedent, but I just think it's evidence that these crackpots have been with us a long time, and will continue to be with us for the forseeable future.
