That may not seem such a great difference, but climate models indicate that if greenhouse gases are causing this warming, the upper atmosphere ought to be warming by about 1.2 times that of the surface, not less." It seems things are unraveling at a faster clip than I thought was possible ... -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ "gmail" domain blocked because of excessive spam.

On the other side of the empty and crumbling citrus packing houses. :( -- Greed is the root of all eBay.

I used to drive by a pair of groves on the way to work,I could smell the orange scent at certain times. The right side grove is still partially there,but disappearing bit by bit,the left side grove is now apartments and office buildings. I think they keep the trees just so they get a tax break for agriculture. -- Jim Yanik jyanik at localnet dot com

It didn't take long after crossing from georgia into Florida on 441 in the '60s before you could smell the orange blossoms. -- Greed is the root of all eBay. |
