I agree that the increased activity is most probably the result of cyclical paterns and we are on the upswing. I just finished going through a thesis on climatology and it is amazing how wildly our climate can swing...we even got a small "ice-age" between 1300 and 1800. The effect of global warming will only be identified for certain after a long enough time to eliminate those variations as probable cause. Of course by that time it will be way too late to do anything about it.

yeaaa, thats the problem with global warming, so many people dont believe in it and soon it will be too late. poor mother earth

well enough about this....cant wait to get to mexico and bake in the extra hot sun!!

WHAT????

Let me put it in plain english. Global warming is already there. You just have to go to the arctic to see it and believe it. The warming trend in the high latitudes is very evident.

For temperate and tropical zones, it will take a lot longer for the effects to be evident (aka palm trees on Pennsylvania Avenue). By that time of course it will be too late. Those climate variations I spoke about are over CENTURIES. Some of the effects of global warming are seen over YEARS or DECADES...way too fast to be entirely natural.

PS: The fact that this started with something out of Fox news should have raised a red flag.

i agree with FOx news ...but fox news said that this has nothing to do with global warming....anyway i really dont know much about the issue i was just saying how no one believes in global warming and the guy in the white house isnt helping the situation.

I agreed with your comment. It's the other one that ruffled my feathers.

Are the mosquitos bad on the beach? My daughters seem to attract them.

Didn't global warming start sometime during the ice age?

One of the thing I like the most about where I currently live is that there are usually no mosquitos.

This year, they are here, they are hungry and they are so big they pick you up and carry you away

The Mexican national bird?

The Mexican national bird is the Royal Eagle. It has been since colonial days, around 1600.

I was referring to the mosquito.

But I'm sure you are correct.

How old is your daughter? My son was like a mosquito magnet - didn't seem to bother us on the beach - just in our room, at dinner, in town, at the show, in the store. Everywhere but the beach. We brought bug spray and weren't afraid to use it! (Stay away from bananas as well - something about potassium attracting them - could be an old wives or new moms tale for all I know!)
