    Delosgatos.

    Delosgatos.

    Climate and weather……….a distinction without a difference.

    I know, I know….. you guys make a distinction….like it matters…..as if they are two different things……please.

    A weatherman is a weatherman…not a “Climatologists” or “Meteorologist”. The guys who pickup the trash at the end of the driveway are trash men, not “Sanitation Workers”.

    You see, if you put lipstick on a pig you still end up with a pig, (not to disparage pigs or trash men, these labels and nuances are really meaningless).

    Geez, get over yourselves.

    Affecting/Controlling the weather…..errr…..”climate”:

    You and your buddies believe that if human produced CO2 is halted or curtailed you will stop weather or “climate” events from happening, (I've got news for you; these WEATHER events will, have and will continue to happen even if you cross your fingers, close your eyes and wish really hard). You seem to be obsessed with some magic power that mankind has over the atmosphere.

    What egotism! To put it bluntly; you ain’t all that.

    Remember: Thou art mortal. Thou art mortal.
