When a farmer makes plans for next year’s crops, he
doesn’t consult Al Gore or a climatologist.
Hysteria, hot air and hockey stick graphs will not suffice. What he needs is a time tested prognosticator
that has an accuracy rate scientist like James Hanson of NASA is envious
of. God knows he and his ilk have been
wrong so often, it’s become an embarrassment. What this steward of the land consults
is the Old Farmer’s Almanac.
And what kind of winter are we going to have? According to Editor Janice Stillman, it will
be a “refriger-nation.” All I have to
say is thank God for global warming.
Otherwise, we’d be in an ice age.
And what factors contribute to The Old Farmer’s
Almanac’s success?
The almanac, which
has about an 80 percent success rate in its forecasts, employs modern
technology but still uses the "secret formula" that founder Robert
Thomas devised in 1792. By combining the study of sunspots, prevailing weather
patterns and basic meteorology, the almanac's weather staff comes up with a
long-range forecast. The temperature deviations are based on 30-year averages
compiled by government forecasters.
Sunspots? Are they trying to tell us the sun has
something to do with the earth’s temperature?
Somebody needs to inform these man-made global warming fanatics.
