In an article by Michael Kunzelman featured on aol.com news entitled, "Rare Snow Coats Louisiana, Mississippi", tells the story of, "a rare snowfall blanket[ing] south Louisiana and parts of Mississippi on Thursday, closing schools, government offices and bridges, triggering crashes and leaving thousands without power." About 8" of snow accumulated throughout these southern states. One New Orleans resident said that the last time she saw any snow fall at all was back in December of 2004. Close to 5" of snow is the record for these states set back on December 30, 1963. A weather service remarked that, "the previous earliest date for measurable snowfall in New Orleans was Dec. 22, 1989."

Now for those of us living in snowier states like Pennsylvania, 8" of snow isn't bad enough to close down most businesses because we are prepared for the wintry mess. Here in Harrisburg, PA between 1948-1991 We averaged 35.4" of the white stuff each year! Between December and February we average between 7" and 10". Snowfall is not uncommon, so our road crews are prepared and so are our citizens, we have adapted to it over the years. But these poor southerners never have snow so most of them don't own shovels, plows or salt resulting in cancellations, delays and closings. What I want to know is where is the self-righteous Al Gore when all of this is happening? I am confused; I was told the world was warming. In January, 27, 2006 Al Gore said, we only have about 10 years before we reach the "tipping point" - 'the point at which we no longer have as much ability and opportunity to stop the damage and change things, and reverse global warming.' If that was Gore's goal to reverse global warming, which translates to me as, 'cool the earth down', then his work here is done and he can go home now and shut up. Gore has successfully stopped global warming, thanks to the help of the followers of his cult. After all, if the Earth were still warming each year, our friends down south wouldn't be shoveling snow right now with their garden picks and hoes (no offense intended to ladies of the night).
