Who Loves you and Warned you?

My Man Telly
 You remember your science classes? The heart and dare I say soul of the scientific method of inquiry is the ability to accurately predict the outcome of an experiment. The better the prediction fits with the observed outcome, the more likely the hypothesis was correct. So  ten years ago or more, scientists were predicting that global climate change would create the conditions for sea level increases, temperature increases, melting glaciers and ice fields, heat waves, floods, fires. The list goes on.
Look at the news today. Every single prediction is here now. Every one. Still doubt that there is a serious climate shift in the process of happening before our eyes? Then look again. Below are a few links to today’s news. Not very nice, are they? Fires, heat waves, storms, sea level rising. You get the point? Remember the old Telly Savalas line (no, you are probably too young) “Who Loves ya Baby?”

Well here is the old Woody line: “Who Warned ya Baby?” And who told you it was bullshit? Conservative talk radio. Fundamentalist preachers. Ignorant congress people. The energy industry.  And many of you sucked it up. Well suck this: IT IS HERE NOW AND IT AIN’T GOING AWAY. \Oh yeah, I am not so pissed as sad for all you gits that kept sucking up the poison the deniers spued. Sad gits. So sad. And, if you bought into the truth from the get go as many of you did, thank you. Don’t give up trying to convert the gits. And you have the right to be just a little smug.
