Are you implying it does cause hurricanes?

While a warmer planet makes for warmer oceans which makes for more severe hurricanes, I'd love to see where someone has any real link to global warming causing hurricanes.

Once again -- just because you tend to believe one side of (what should have never become) a political issue, it doesn't mean you have to slurp up every bit of bullshit that comes out of anyone's mouth.

By the way, I'm personally forecasting an earthquake in California sometime in the next fifteen years that will be a magnitude 7.0 or higher unless we immediately act to curb greenhouse gas emissions. I'm also forecasting major flooding along the Mississippi River within the next ten years unless we reduce our nation's dependence on genetically engineered farm products. And, I'm forecasting a major forest fire in Montana in the next five years unless we immediately stop using the words "felch", "Gore" and "Bizzarofelice" in the same sentence.

What about jesus? You know if you work in a fairly accurate return date of the big man, the rest of the stuff on your list would be a no brainer.

Close. Beer is nasty hot and when the power goes out then you're pretty much screwed. A couple of big ice chests full of ice will last you a while if you're making Beam and Cokes. After that melts then you just start shooting the shit straight. My days of hurricane partying are over as long as I'm at my current job. As the head of the IT Dept, I'll be in charge of all the evacuation and backup of company data and vital equipment. Lots of fun. Not.

Oh and rack the Abrams pic.

I was not implying anything, other than 88's theory, made up or real, that because of warming there would be a 7.0 earthquke or any earthquake. Earthquakes have been happening since the earth's creation 500 billion yrs ago, during ice ages and when the planet was just molten lava pools, quakes happen on every single planet and moon in our universe.

Do you suppose that if the insurance industry forecasters predict an active hurricane season in the US, that it might justify raising everyone's insurance rates to cover the impending calamity? Call me crazy, but a forecast of doom has to be an insurance company's greatest gift. Just think what a prediction of relative calm in the Atlantic next year would have done to insurance premiums.

Insurance companies HATE the hurricane season... seriously.. they piss their pants b/c any profits they've made up until then can be wiped out with 1 big storm.

I hate to break it to you, but earthquakes are definitely related to global warming. Have you ever watched a mud ball dry in the sun? First, everything is all happy happy fun fun. But then that mud ball starts drying out due to the heat and cracking. At first, it is a little crack, barely detectible. Some people might even think it is cute and stuff. But don't be fooled. Before long, that crack starts getting bigger, and other cracks form, and that heat starts getting into the core of the mud ball and the bad stuff really starts happening. Think of the Earth as one giant mud ball. Humans have been digging holes in it and causing cracks to form. We have mines, and tunnels and all kinds of places where global warming can get in and start making little cracks get bigger. Its coming, man. Strap your fat ass to something solid, because your world is going to be rocked.

That was pretty darn funny. I'll give you a set of antlers for that.

The theory that global warming is causing more severe hurricanes is actually pretty controversial with in the meteorlogical community.

500 Billion years ago? Nice one Jess, even the bible thumpers are closer at guessing the Earths age than you are.

Bwaha!

"A 400-page United Nations report has identified the world's rapidly growing herds of cattle as the greatest threat to the climate, forests and wildlife. And they are blamed for a host of other environmental crimes, from acid rain to the introduction of alien species, from producing deserts to creating dead zones in the oceans, from poisoning rivers and drinking water to destroying coral reefs."

The truth: Cow mutilations are not caused by alien visitors. Rather they are a result of drunken reindeer who "borrow" the fat man's sled. Inconveniently for cattle our docking station looks slightly like a standing short horned cow. Last year Rudolph tried to land the sled on three angus steers in Colorado. His glowing nose streaked through the sky and indirectly bred over 40 conspiracy websites. It's all pretty darn funny.
