OTH, Pat... wierd weather happens. There have been lots of other wierd
weather cycles in the past, that humans had no part in causing. Take most of
the 12th century, for example (average temperatures were 5 degrees below
what they were in the 11th and 13th... it just got cold all of a sudden. In
Europe, the Black Forest shrunk to less than the size it is today, due to
all the people cutting wood for fires)
