And here is your first lesson in logic.  What happens at a local
level might not be happening at the global level.  If it is hot in
Arkansas is it necessarily hot in Washington state?  While it might
be hot in the U.S is it necessarily hot in Europe?

Get the picture yet?

Ahhh the old intimidation attempt here.  Well Brad buddy, my name is
Steve Verdon and I work for a utility.  From you limited view point,
yeah I am the enemy.

Oh cut the crap.  Its hot, not on fire.  I am pretty sure if an
entire continent was on fire it would make even to yahoo news. <rolls
