Of course. It's just left-wing propaganda ;-) Seriously, there is
great debate in both directions. Neither side has made a
scientifically-significant argument. Personally, reviewing Arizona
weather records that go back a hundred years it appears that we are
slightly COOLER.
But I understand that you folk, stuck on the East Coast, have a lot of
acid rain to contend with. But it's not coming from Arizona. Most of
our power plants run on natural gas, plus we have one nuclear
facility. There's one big coal plant at Four Corners, but they use
scrubbers in their stacks.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
