wow.....

Around this time last year, the Gulf Stream Current wasn't flowing all the way to Great Britain...not a big deal right? Wrong. This causes killer storms, methane releases, temperature changes (and other Day After Tomorrow weather) Look at some of the headlines from that time period

hmmmm............well.......I didn't hear anything about this on CNN(or, heaven forbid, Fox News [aka: we FIX your NEWS the way we like it])

I wonder, there has been freakish weather lately in the USA....now if only I could find out how the Gulf Stream is doing (Homeland Security probably considers it information that is vital to our national "security [security here being political security and monetary security] and has it classified).
