What did you find particularly unpersuasive?  That 2006 didn't have a lot
of hurricanes?  The effects aren't necessarily linear.  Polar bears are
drowning for the first time so much ice has melted, and the resulting water
is now absorbing sun instead of reflecting it the way ice does.  The ice
shelf in the Antarctic that was predicted to take 100 years to melt melted
in 35 days.  Point after point after point and it's unconvincing.  Boy, you
are a good Republican.  Personally, I'm kind of curious myself to see how
it goes.  I've been more attentive to the Weather Channel's averages, even
though I know that small scale changes are meaningless.  Even so, we're
about 5 degrees above average today.
