Ahhh.. global warming. Ya know, if we would have listened to the preachers of this religion called environmentalism back in the late seventies, we would be in a world of crap. I seem to remember on the cover of time magazine "THE COMING ICE AGE" Where would we be now if we tried to head that off? Did you hear the polar caps are shrinking on Mars? I guess we have something to do with that. Guess what the 2 planets have in common? THE SUN. It goes through 11 year cycles of increased solar flare activity. When that happens guess what? Increased heat. There are HUNDREDS of years of oil available and believe it or not, there are still fossils being converted to oil. We can responsibly drill for oil without a major impact on the environment. If we would just drill for the oil that is there and build some new refineries to keep up with he demand then the prices wouldnt be so high. I also agree that nuclear power is a way to go. As for hybrids, they are a scam. Being in the auto trade let me tell you about them. If you need heat, the gas engine has to run. If you need A/C, the gas engine has to run. If you travel at high speeds, the gas engine has to run. Only if you live where the temp is 70* year round and drive less than 45 mph, then a hybrid is for you. Also according to osha law. To work on one 2 techs must be present. First a 6 foot perimeter must be set up. Then the tech working on the car inside the perimeter. Then a tech with a 6 foot fiberglass pole with a hook on the end to pull the other guy off the car if he is getting electrocuted. Not to mention the little light on the dash that tells you to pull over and exit the car that it is ready to melt down. Yea, Ill take 2. Finally for this kyoto treaty. If the enviros were really seriuos about pollution, why isnt China required to follow the same rules? Its all about crushing capitalism... and who is capitalism? The U.S.A. Sorry for the long rant, I saw others post and I had to get my 2 cents in.

What a day. I woke up to it snowing. Then by 10 AM it was raining and then at noon the sun came out. Now we are having a very heavy hail storm! :shock: This morning the temp was 31 degrees and right now it says it's 38 degrees out side. :? Where is Spring?

I hate to say it, but it is VERY warm here in Scottsdale. Sunny and high 80's today. We're looking at above normal temps now for the rest of the month.
