It's unusual where I live I can tell you.

This is a minority opinion. Any student sharing it with their examiner
would fail that aspect of their exam, but since you clearly exercise
your mind by believing six impossible things before breakfast I
suppose we can write this off as part of the price you pay to maintain
your genius-level IQ.

Nothing. And linear mathematical models would not be much use for
modelling the climatic phenomena involved. It was you who made the
ridiculous claim that mathematical modelling was restrict to systems
that could be adequately described by linear equations - "Besides,
models only model LINEAR systems ! " - and I was treating this fatuity
with smaller dose of contempt than it really deserves.

Sure. It wasn't caused by a drought, but by potato blight -
phytopythora infestans

Funded by Exxon-Mobil eh ?

You've lost your marbles, you unemployable old gasbag.

Why should I bother? You've got your own rich store of fatuous
fantasies to parade as captialised FACTS.
