I don't. He cracks me up. No glaciation in the southern hemisphere during the last Ice Age.... I nearly choked laughing.

Sorry girls I remember a Ronnie Corbett joke that they were so soft you could have a reign of terror with a balloon on a stick. I think that sums you up.
Anyway keep up the tablets for all that anxiety, read what Eisenhower said about researchers and a big clap for all the money given to the UN from all those HEC's debts.

“What’s less clear is how many of these events it will take—major floods also hit China, France, and Guatemala over the last week, with more than 100 dead—before we start bending the global emissions curve away from a worst-case climate scenario.”

Earlier in the year:

The Atacama Desert in Chile was flooded and a mining area was hit hard with loss of life and infrastructure damage.
Oklahoma and Texas were hit hard by floods after having previously been in drought.
Turkey had major flooding.
The Olympic National Park in the State of Washington was ravaged by fire earlier in the year. The Park normally has lush rainforest vegetation as the rainfall is normally around 150 inches annually.
In a wildfire in Alaska 500,000 acres were burnt in a 24 hour period.
While the East Coast of the US had huge snowfalls, ski slopes in Western areas struggled through lack of snow.
The start line for the Iditarod sled dog race in Alaska had to be moved North through lack of snow and ice earlier in 2015.
A number of near wet bulb conditions occurred earlier in the year causing death to thousands of people and hospitals were overrun by patients; the countries impacted were India, Pakistan, Middle Eastern countries, Japan and Cyprus. Wet bulb conditions happen when there is extreme humidity and temperature which stops people from being able to perspire. Full blown hot bulb conditions are deadly for healthy adults.
Drought has impacted on California, Central American countries, Brazil, the Caribbean, Australia and Europe. In California they have used so much artesian water that in some areas the ground has slumped.
A huge algal bloom off the West Coast of the US caused the shell fish industry to be closed.

Still no comments about ExxonMobil scientists in the 1970s ( somewhat embarrassing), indicating that anthropogenic climate change is real, JB. Insults do not in any way change that fact; the Union of Concerned Scientists has also investigated correspondence of ExxonMobil and come up with the same conclusion
