Winter in New Hampshire, and the snowbats come out to play:
Rejoicing in the chill, one of the organisers of this debacle “said it was almost as cold as the day former presidential candidate Al Gore gave his global warming speech in New York City.” Hooray!
UPDATE. Global warming has stopped, writes David Whitehouse:
With only few days remaining in 2007, the indications are the global temperature for this year is the same as that for 2006 – there has been no warming over the 12 months.
But is this just a blip in the ever upward trend you may ask? No.
The fact is that the global temperature of 2007 is statistically the same as 2006 as well as every year since 2001. Global warming has, temporarily or permanently, ceased.
My thought exactly, blogstrop. I thought to myself, I did, I thought:
“At last, someone coming to their senses and demonstrating for global warming”
“We want it hot. When do we want it? Now!”

So which of our esteemed opinion writers has the nickname “Slush”?
My theory is:
Traceeee is Lush, because she’s always trying to score.
Catherine Deveny is Crush, because she doesn’t like dissent.
Phil Adams is Plush, because he reminds me of a giant, smelly, teddy bear that no kid would ever want.
Terry Lane is Flush, because that’s what happened to his weekly column.
Adele Horin is Mush, because that’s all she ever writes.So, as you can see, one of our finest opinion writers must go by the name “Slush”.
According to the article, one of the demonstrators was an employee of The Carbon Coalition.
Aha, another coal industry shill.

reposted here because I’m not sure what skite means
Merry Christmas TimB! I hope this will get you through most of 2008. Since I got you such a great gift maybe you could use your position as opinion page editor at the Telegraph to let me have some space on that page to express some opinions about 1.618, 1.618 & me, and other 1.618 related topics. I think about 8-12 column inches might be enough space. What girl wouldn’t be impressed by 8 column inches? (over 20 cm!)

OT: It looks like Infidel Tiger is poised to take over from Chuck Norris.
That is, in deed, important news. But of even greater import is….
Which side will he align himself with in the eternal Pirates vs Ninjas war?
This site gives a good break down of the pros and cons of both sides of the Pirate vs Ninja War
It’s a short but fact filled presentation that does a good job of clearly laying out both the strengths and weaknesses of each side.
The conclusion reached at the end is not obvious, but after you think on it some, you’ll see the rightfulness-ness of it.
My first reaction to Pirates vs Ninjas was that someone had been playing DragonFable for wayyy too long.
The really interesting thing about the article in the New Statesman is that it is in the New Statesman, a lefty rag in the UK.
