A couple fo Canadian truckers who drive rigs over ice roads in Northwestern Canada were on the “Tonight Show” with Jay Leno. Leno asked them their opinion about global warming. They shrugged it off, remarking that a couple years back they had the “warmest” (a VERY relative term above the Arctic Circle) winters in their memory, but that the last two winters were the coldest they could remember. More to the point, at no time did their ice roads melt.
These truckers are not climatologists, so their observations are only anecdotal. The point to them — and to many of us who have a problem with climate change alarmism — was that 1) you take things in stride, and 2) whether there is a warming trend or not, it sure aas hell isn’t cataclysmic.
