Cold Is Warm

The National Weather Bureau announced that the winter of 2014 was the coldest recorded in modern history. Having lived through a weary long season of frigid temperatures, multiple snowstorms, and a delayed Spring I am happy to see a few flowers in the gardens of Fort Greene and leaves sprouting from the trees lining Lafayette Street. At night the chill in the air holds the threat of snow in May. We have passed through the worst of it, but yesterday Rapid City ND experienced flurries and Global Warming denialists crowed in delight about the return to winter, as if it were an extra episode of GAME OF THRONES. "you-awl in the coast area– is giong to drowned by high sea waters caused by burning coal– that made them ole polar caps to melt– this flood of waters ran back up rivers for 200 miles– NY city shall be under water by 2013– you-uns in the center parts of america shall be scorched-n- dried up and blown away—— dad-gum-it– I forgeets — now that it is climate change– you-yuns is going to freeze to death cause polar vortex is going to swoop down and get you— sorry fur my mistake– I be not real smart likens you fellers that trust science– who jobs depend on research funds to solve a problem— I’sss be dumb enough to look out the winder at the weather– anyways all you-yunes need to worry all you kans– ok !!" The only nation with deniers blessed with this magnitude of ignorance is the USA. But what can you expect for a third-world nation whose main religion worships a bearded tranny in a muumuu. Ignorance is knowledge.
