Yes, unfortunately, some of the inferior primates simply don't grasp AGW - or don't wish to, since it would be politically inconvenient or not in keeping with their laughably primitive superstitions. To those of us who actually read (gasp!) papers about climate, Sandy isn't a surprise; the probability of such an event has been steadily increasing, to the point when it was only a matter of where and when, not if. As an example of this in a nontechnical forum, Dr. Jeff Masters (Weather Underground) predicted something like Sandy -- rather accurately, as it turns out -- in a TED talk a year ago: http://blog.ted.com/2012/11/02/one-year-ago-predicting-hurricane-sandys-devastating-effects/ In that talk, he talks about nine "unthinkable" weather disasters that could hit the US in the next thirty years. As the text at that link observes, number six just happened. ---rsk _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
