Global warming strikes in India

[DoctorDoom]

At least 12 more people froze to death in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, police said Thursday, as a cold wave that has gripped north India since the weekend showed signs of easing.

The latest deaths pushed the national cold death toll to 181, according to figures compiled by police and officials across northern India.Cold Spell Claims 12 More Lives In Northern India, Toll 181 (http://www.terradaily.com/news/Indian_Cold_Spell_Toll_Reaches_181.html)

Dear Al,

Pradesh Chandrasekhar
DF: Is that a real name? I used to work with a man with that same last name and I used to bowl against another man with that same last name. I never knew their real first names because they went by their American nicknames, which I can't remember.

Those are real Indian names, and without doubt there are a few Indians named Pradesh Chandrasekhar.

Or Chandrasekhar Pradesh. I've seen both Pradesh and Chandrasekhar used as first names and as last names. Hence I'm pretty safe in using them here as made up name, since as near as I can tell they're equivalent to John Smith or Jim Jones.

I heard the Fill-In Talker for Rush give the stats today about how many people have died world-wide this year from cold.

Record cold in many, many places where cold is very rare.

Proof positive of global warming!

Or so Al would have you believe.

AlBore is safe and warm in his energy-intensive mansion, but he buys carbon offsets from his own company, so he's kewl with his fawning ecowacko groupies.

Dear Al,

Please use some of your millions to bring me and my family to one of your mansions until the cold weather passes.

Thank you.
