Haven't you read the latest from the environmentalists wanting to control every aspect of our lives. It is no longer called "Global Warming" as things don't seem to be getting warmer. It is now called "Climate Change"

I still remember when they said we were causing a new ice-age. Sure wish they would make up their minds.

Guys, global warming is real, why just 10,000 years ago New York City and even Rick's place in NJ was under thousands of feet of solid glacier ice!

Horst, The cold weather follows you. Remember the year you came to Aberdeen? Coldest year we ever had there. Better than flying in 95 and humid though. I would imagine dusting in that weather could be challenging.

That crop feeds them so I don't think they hate us so bad. But we were two helos operating, so the noise was significant :)
