Why not just write to Oriol Servia and ask him? :gomer:
Now that I've decided to be serious about this, a friend is living there. I'll write to him and see if he can muster the energy to reply.
Some interesting architecture they have there...

my 20 years of scientific studies have revealed that the climate has been changing ever since there has been climate. You can read my study in the March issue of the Journal of Common Sense

Was there ever weather stasis?

The folks testing F1 cars in Jerez were complaining mightily about the 32°F temperatures.

Oh **** man, you are way smarter than that. Seasonal variation has nothing to do with average global temperature. Your friends are freezing for the same reason the eastern united states is experiencing a mild winter. The reason is that the planetary waves are shifted a bit from their 30 year "normal" positions. Planetary waves are anchored by continents, mountain ranges and sea surface temperatures. Planetary waves are a large scale feature that controls air mass dominance and meso-scale storm tracks which leads to year to year variation. Sea surface temperature variation caused by large scale variations in ocean circulation and is the biggest contributor to planetary wave anomolies.
The Earth is heating up at an alarming rate. http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/WorldOfChange/decadaltemp.php
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/WorldOfChange/ pay attention to the global temperature map.
One must understand carbon and the carbon cycle to understand what releasing millions of years of locked up carbon into the earth/atmosphere/ocean system in a century will result in. The changes will be immense and profound http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/CarbonCycle/ Pay attention to this one http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/CarbonCycle/page5.php
A degree in physical geography and a graduate degree in micro-meteorolgy and atmospheric chemistry will do that to ya.
The next lesson will be HOW Earth systems change from one regime to another. It involves the magnitude and frequency of events, exceeding thresholds and negative and positive feedback loops in the ocean.
The bottom line is that man is going to force a shift by overloading the atmosphere and ocean with carbon. It is NOT a good idea even if the outcome is not certain.
Who are you and what have you done with Methanolandbrats?

Sorry man, my grad school/scientist side flared up, I'll have a few more IPAs and go back to drunken racefan. :gomer:

The folks in Greenland are very happy, at the expense of the comfort of the planetary handwringers

I am the same guy, I still owe you a Boddington Ale from years ago because I bet Schumacher would do something, but he ****ed it up. Maybe we could hook up at RA this summer for something. It would be fun to have a Wisconsin/upper midwest Off Camber gathering :) There sure seems to be a lot of Wisconsin and nearby doods who hang out on these boards.
