Man made global warming is real.

Actually Toyota has come into real production problems over the past 5 years methdeez.  My pops is the GM of a large dealership, his friend is the GM of a toyota store down the road.  The old days of Toyotas running for a million miles passed a long time ago. 

Huh..Well my Toyota is from 1987, so I don't have to worry about it.
Next time I'll go with Honda. I put over 250,000 miles on my Honda from high school and I changed the oil about every 2 years.

The most important calculation in the article is based on the assumption that Prius's will run for 100,000 miles before being replaced, while Hummer's will run for 300,000 miles. Which is a fairly ridiculous assumption. A GM running 300,000 miles? Ha! A toyota failing after 100,000? not likely.

I drove a cavalier for 190,000 and it never gave me an issue, all i ever did was change the oil and filters and belts...nothing major ever happened. I have a newer malibu now, when it hits 200,000 i'll let you know (it's at 44,000 now)

Hybrid cars don't have the mileage endurance that regular Toyotas do.

Looks like I'll be seeing about 7 inches of global warming today.

Warmest winter on record.

Driving sucks, my truck got stuck on a small hill. Roads are a sheet of ice. I'm inside with my 6'er and March Madness until further notice.

I had a hell of a time getting home this afternoon. Lots of people stuck and getting in my way. And even more people driving way too fast for conditions.

Forecasted snowfall amount upgraded to almost 12 inches. I'm hoping for the warmest early spring on record to melt that shtein off.

Warmest winter on record. 

In the northern hemisphere, it was indeed.

Take a look at Russia.

crazy old British guy challenges Gore to a debate

[Geowhizzer]

Hurricane forecaster William Gray calls Al Gore a "gross alarmist."

Gray seems to be a "long wolf" in arguing against global warming being a factor in the increased number of hurricanes in the past few years.

Its 20 degrees below the normal temperature for Philly today.

and snowing at the beach 

[Geowhizzer]

70 here. 

We'll be broiling in between dodging the hurricanes in a few weeks, though.

[Father Demon]

Tomorrow I'll be mowing my lawn.

In a parka, gloves, and ski mask as it's only getting to 35 degrees or so.

Al Gore is a bitch.

Everyone should go rent "An Inconvenient Truth" if they havnt seen it yet.  There is some value in that flick regardless of any politcal nonsense some may try and turn it into.

I'm way late to the thread, but since it's come back up, I just saw this the other day and it's an eye opening movie for sure. It easily and concisely puts the environmental issues into focus in a way that anyone can understand digest. Highly recommend watching it even if you're not an enviro-nut.
