Insert Elf Joke Here

This year I started wearing shorts on Sunday the 16th of May. Last year it was the 7th of June. This is the third consecutive year that shorts wearing has occured earlier. If you weren't concerned about global warming before then don't be now. This is great! It's becoming like the mediterranean over here. Everyone buy fridges expensive petrol consuming cars and throw them away set fire to them! Lets get with that carbon monoxide dioxide pollution!

because it's been emblazened in my head every geography lesson, i MUST say that CFCs do not cause global warming. it is in fact the burning of fossil fuels and release of CO2 into the atmosphere. CFCs make holes in the ozone layer, but that is called something completely different.

shorts are sad. jeans in hot weather forever!

I bet you won't be wearing shorts this time next week though?

I think it's got more to do with exams than global warming. It's always sunny when people are trying to revise for their finals. It's a plot to make sure the lazy can't just get away with not having worked all year.

Oh dear. Two science errors. CFCs are implicated in ozone loss which is a separate matter to greenhouse warming.
And its C02 (dioxide) which allows greenhouse warming. Monoxide just kills you.

I would like to say i did know something was wrong with my statement, however i'm a fool and didn't check my facts. Anyway. We'll still be hotter without the ozone layer right?

Oh, and I've found a JS thing that acts like EditCSS: http://nontroppo.org/wiki/WebDevToolbar - look under "Display". It's the only one of the whole set I actually have installed.
