The Descent of Mann (with apologies to Charles Darwin)

If you want an accurate weather forecast, just stick your head out the window.

If you want an accurate forecast on global climate change, you need to stick your head somewhere else – like a Michael Mann lecture.

Except when frigid temperatures (the result of global warming) and record amounts of snow (also the result of global warming) cancel the performance…uhhhh… the colloquium on climate change.

Mann, Penn State climatologist and lead suspect in the ClimateGate controversy, was slated to tell students at the University of Penn how the world was growing hotter. But according to an email to Instapundit, Mann’s colloquium has been cancelled for the most ironic of reasons:

“Today, Michael Mann was scheduled to give a colloquium on climate change at the University of Pennsylvania, where I am a graduate student. As you may know, Philadelphia has been hit by multiple snowstorms in the past week. Today, for what I am told is the first time since the mid-1990s, the university suspended normal operations due to snow, and his colloquium on climate change has been postponed.”

University officials are currently beseeching Gaia for mercy so that they can re-schedule the lecture.

  • I went to the bathroom this morning and did my business mainly because of global warming, then I made breakfast and drank some hot tea because of climate change, afterwards I read the newspaper because the plates of the Earth crust are grinding and now I am on my computer writing a paper because is cold outside.

    All the things that we do and what happens around us are under the control of the Planet's meteorological or climate whims. We must just accept it as fact as Science, which is the language of the environmental religion, has settled everything as per the priests to the Earth like Mann.

  • Now, the liberals are claiming that the frigid weather with snow in every state,but Hawaii,is due to none other than global warming. They say all of us naysayers are just stupid and don't understand the science behind it. What I understand is that all that data that they've been collecting has been either manipulated or mishandled and cannot be used to support their claims.
