================================
On 03-25-14, BILL MCGARRITY said to TIM RICHARDSON:


Here's a little follow-up on this morning's reply to this;


BM>Tim, were you in NYC during Sandy??


TR> No. How about this:


TR> Were *you* in the New York City area in 1821?


TR> A major hurricane hit Manhattan that year. Sea levels rose as much as
TR> 13 feet! That it hit at low tide was pretty much the only thing that
TR> saved the entire city from being washed away by sea water!


TR> What do you suppose `Man-made' global warming-nee-climate change had to
TR> do with THAT one?


BM>Tim,  Sandy wasn't a hurricaine when it hit land so your references aren't
BM>valid....  it was more of a tropical depression.


Bill...its been called `hurricane' Sandy by a whole bunch of people.
Scientists who follow those sorts of storms...insurance companies who
compensate those who had policies that covered `hurricane' damage...law
enforcement and emergency responders who tried to aid those in dangerous
situations due to the `hurricane'...


BM>Oh wait, the NWS said
BM>that and being you're so pro-gubmint, I guess you can't believe what they
BM>said.


Actually...I'm anti-government, as you well know if you've understood a single
thing I've posted in Fido for the last 20 or more years. So that little
pseudo-insult of yours will get added to the long list of personal attacks
you're so redundant with, and ignored with the rest of them.


So...lets take a closer look at this `non'-hurricane of yours;


The `NWS' acronym you sling out there is the `National Weather Service'.


And..`of course'...*they* don't know near as much as *you* do about these
things!


But...according to CNN...


Hurricane Sandy was called both a `hurricane' and `post-tropical' storm.


As `hurricane Sandy' (as per CNN) it was responsible for 117 deaths in the US,
spread over several states, and an additional 69 deaths in Canada and the
Carribbean region.


According to CNN...it developed as a tropical storm on October 22.


On October 23 it elevates to a category 1 `hurricane'.


On October 24, it makes landfall in Jamaica as a `hurricane' with 80mph winds.


On October 25 it makes landfall on a part of Cuba, and is now a category 2
`hurricane' with winds of 105mph!


On October 27, the NWS down-graded Sandy to a `tropical storm'.


On October 29 it was approaching the US coast as a category 2 storm.


But...lets look at something here;


As a `tropical storm'...or a `hurricane'....the result is:


There are 117 people dead.


The total losses in dollars is monumental...in the billions!


We can argue `it was a hurricane'....`it *wasn't* a hurricane'.


But insurance companies, city governments, weather monitors, all refer to it
by the name `hurricane Sandy'.


They're all huge numbers of people. You're just one poster in a social media.


BM>BTW, no comment on my effect on the stratosphere ozone layer or is
BM>that a myth as well?


Well...*your* effect on the stratosphere ozone layer I'd have to say is
minimal-to-non-existent! You're one person. I'd say you have little or no
imprint on it whatsoever!


And if you're trying to get mileage out of the `hole in the ozone layer' macro
the `global warming' chicken little's have been spouting for many years,
you're wasting your time.


But...some info on that.


Firstly....holes in the ozone layer in the upper stratosphere come and go on a
regular basis.


Again...it is the Sun doing it and NOT Man! The Solar wind causes high-energy
particles to hit Earth's upper atmosphere, and some of those particle currents
consume ozone at both poles.


Also, volcanoes erupting in the Southern Hemisphere release large amounts of
gases that also consume ozone in the upper atmosphere.


Its normal activity. Nothing to panic about...nothing to make a whole bunch of
restrictive laws and regulations over. Just ordinary every-day Solar-Planet
interactions.


Oh by the way....


Al Gore is a great one for preaching the dangers of `man-made' global warming.


But Al Gore's carbon footprint is bigger in one single year than an average
family of four have in 20!


Hussein Obama has his wife and kids in China on vacation, with the resulting
`carbon footprint' of their flying to and from!


And Hussein Obama himself just flew to Belgium with over 900 people, Air Force
One, three cargo planes, and 45 motor vehicles!


Like Al Gore...Hussein Obama is all about everybody else `going green'.


They're both hypocrites! I drive my car just over 3000 miles a year, and I put
all of 120 miles on my pickup last year! Those two between them burn up more
fuel, and pump more CFC's into the atmosphere in a WEEK, then I will in the
rest of my entire life!


Before you start running around shouting `the Earth is heating up' because of
what all of us are doing...maybe you should get the attention of the ones who
are leading you around by the nose with this so-called `global warming' scam,
and try to get them to set the `example' they want the rest of us to follow!
