I live in a typically very cold state...Break out the aerosol cans global warming is my friend...who needs florida and manhattan.

Actually, I tend to believe that there is "probably" a global warming trend occurring but doubt that it has been caused by humans. More likely a natural part of the earth life cycle since there have been both warming and cooling trends in the earths climate over the last umpteen million years. It is possible that our emissions have contributed but certainly not carved in stone. When I was a kid they were whining about another ice age occurring...sometime in the next 10,000 years or so. At the rate we're going, there is some doubt as to whether mankind (oops sorry...humankind...oops sorry, peoplekind...oops sorry...oh fuck it) will still be around to worry about it. Pretty sure I won't be here to see it.
