Even a 100% die hard skeptic would respect a scientific statement that the chances of the Texas fire and Russia fire last year being a normal fluctuations is 0.13%.

No such equivocation attends a Goddard Institute for Space Studies appraisal of the heat wave that assaulted Texas, Oklahoma, and northeastern Mexico last summer. Their report represents a sea change in high-level climate studies in that they boldly assert a causal link between specific weather events and global warming. The Texas heat wave, like a similar one in Russia the previous year, was so hot that its probability of occurring under “normal” conditions (defined as those prevailing from 1951 to 1980) was approximately 0.13%. It wasn’t a 100-year heat wave or even a 500-year one; it was so colossally improbable that only changes in the underlying climate could explain it. [emphasis mine]

Climate change and the American West

How are you doing bud?

Well, thinking about you and hope the hostile one has evaporated. Catch up with you later. 

David, I did not realize there was hostility on this site. I know how miserable that is, having been a target of some pretty nasty stuff from someone who disagreed with me. I read many of your comments, although I am very behind on reading mail. Is there some group that I could receive you comments? Don't want to lose you. 

Hey, thanks for accepting! Nice to meet ya! :)

David, maybe you would be interested in this group.

Hey bud, thanks for friending me!  Glad to have you hear, your discussions are always spot-on and have no Vogon bias.  None.

Hello David. Saw that you posted this discussion on Google, which I fully support. Anytime you want to share anything from me, I will fully support. But what I want to know is how can I get to this on Google to view it. Thanks for the help, my friend, and have a great day.
