Also, all the record low temps in the winter of 10/11.  Now I know you cannot prove or disprove a trend based on statistical anomalies but remember what the GW crowd was saying?  They were saying that the record cold and snow was proof of GW.  So basically no matter what the weather, they will claim and manipulate data to try and bolster their theory. Also, if the GW people were serious about CO2 concerns, they would be rabid in their support of nuclear energy. It is the only 0 carbon source of energy capable of meeting demand. Instead the GW crowd pushes solutions like cap and trade, wind, solar, and conservation.  They are not proposing serious solutions but rather political ones. Look, I don't have a problem with wind or solar power but that is not a source that will replace fossil fuels and I don't think many people are willing to go back to living like the Amish to save mother earth.  So yes I am very skeptical of the GW movement based on their lack of solutions and irrefutable evidence that our current weather is unprecedented. We could cut back and ride bikes and use candles, then one volcano will erupt and spew out a decades worth of CO2 and make it a moot point.  We are not as big and important as we may think we are to mother earth.</blockquote>
