What are you on about?

Well at least you hint you are an unhateful socialist but using the term “denialists” sort of deflates your point, doesn’t it.

Freezing in the dark for a few weeks, food rotting in freezers, no fuel from the bowsers, no street lights, traffic lights, essential services using diesel trucked in, oh joyfullness !

Did you click over to their forum?

I enjoyed the heck out of reminding the protestors to wear their mittens, “because its gonna be cold outside”.

Here’s the picture of “thousands”. http://www.upi.com/News_Photos/view/70ae8d8d62350439d0c3d16096fe8b17/Demonstrators_call_for_Capitol_Hill_to_use_clean_energy_in_Washington/
They use a tight shot to give the illusion of claustrophobia.

And here’s the same crowd from a better vantage point.

Back down to hundreds.

I have two cherry tree both under three years old but they are already producing fruit and growing fast. They’re just nursery varieties that are self pollinating crossbreeds. The fruit is so good that I plan to put more in. My problem is that they suffer from sawfly larvae infestations because the recent summers have been too cool (ahem) to knock the larvae back.

They flower very early even while heavy frosts are occurring and the fruit is finished before the vernal equinox.

Does this mean that unlike last northern summer she will now refrain from claiming local heatwaves are an obvious sign of global warming?

We don’t believe a year of snow storms or a heat waves is indicative of climate trends either. We’re just having a good laugh at the people who with hypocritical selectivity do and now find Murphy’s Law has their protest placards wilting under the weight of ice.

If only we could convince Ann’s ilk to extend the same flawless rational analysis they exhibit during unusual cold spells into the summer….

…since we farmers and animals know that since thousands of years there are backlashes with every June, July and August too.

There’s an old Aussie bush colloquialism, about a 100 years old, that goes something like this “Bloody hell mate the big dry has broke, get me Elders on the horn it’s time to RESTOCK!”

When I look at Wes’ post and Morano’s comment you have to shake your head. Since thousands of years there are backlashes with spring every March, April and May. All animals and farmers know this.

There is a Swedish fairy tell for children , over 100 years old , that states ” Sleep little trees , it’s still winter” ( when the trees have buds).

A picture says it all : ( here’s the 100 years old pic):
