You're very lucky this is a politics-free zone, or I'd be opening up a can of scientific facts on you.

Feel free, as long as it isn’t political why the issue?  Bring the facts.

Has climate not always changed as I said?

Have there been periods of cooling and warming as I have said?

Expected cost outlay to drop temperature by such a small amount to not have any material impact.  So say the scientists.

Pretty sure science backs those claims up 100%.

Please don’t. We all will have to put up with 30 holier than thou, pontificating posts with links to some kooks who claims the earth is actually getting colder.

Dumb luck, but I just happened to plan one of my escapes from Wisconsin for this week, down in Az and just realized that there is about a 100 degree difference between here(mid 70’s) and you guys(minus 20’s, not counting the windchill ).

  And the earth....has a fever???  😉. 😳. 😁

Get inspired recently?

Love that ride.  I've done that lake effect nightmare too many times.  FYI, salt doesn't work below about 10f.
My brother worked at that cider farm a couple of years ago, I think.  Virtue Cider?

That would be the cider farm. We make some good $hit.

I am well versed in road salt as the wife works for Morton and does a lot of work with the bulk deicing team. As you know, because of microclimate MI is in it's rarely as cold in the fruit belt as it is in Chicago. Pluses and minuses. Just make sure I have AWD and Waze running and we'll be ok.

Coldest?  Yesterday.

I'm in Yakutsk, Russia and decided to walk back to the hotel from dinner.  Wearing a suit and overcoat after a day of meetings.  Only a 10 minute walk and my eyes were freezing shut.  Checked the temp when I got to the hotel... -44C.  (-47F).

The good part - my flight this morning was delayed (fog, <300m vis) so I was able to watch the game on Fox Sports Go through my VPN!

Yes you do.   The micro climates near the lake are fascinating.  Hence the uptick in wineries and cideries.   And the cherry production up by Traverse.   BTW, if anyone likes cherries, google Cherry Republic.  You're welcome.

We need to merge this thread with the Millennials thread.

Because when I was young, the temp was always minus-something all winter. And I used to walk 20 miles to school ... uphill ... both directions. And I didn't have shoes; my papa just tied pieces of cardboard to my feet. And we had to walk to the outhouse every time we needed to make #1 or #2. And we didn't have Global Waming to wam things up for us, like the lucky Millennials today do.

Yakutsk?  That's one of the territories on the RISK board.

If you don't mind sharing, what brings you there? Very unique place to be traveling.

I think I'm still playing a game I started as a kid.

Risk was fun ... but a game took forever!
