You Can't Make This Stuff Up

EPW HEARINGS POSTPONED DUE TO WEATHER 

UPDATE: The following Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works hearings have been postponed due to inclement weather this week:

- The Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, Subcommittee on Water and Wildlife, will hold a hearing entitled, "Collaborative Solutions to Wildlife and Habitat Management."

- The Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works will hold a hearing entitled, "Global Warming Impacts, Including Public Health, in the United States."

Once the hearings are rescheduled, information will be posted at www.epw.senate.gov

Here is the link to the original notice. Of course, none of this has any of the aggressively pro-global warming advocates rethinking their position.  


UPDATE: (From Instapundit) "IRONY ABOUNDS: A reader emails: “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.”"


Michael Mann is the author of the "hockey stick," called into serious question by Climategate and by the work of Steve McIntyre.  




Here is another headline (one of a number of these today):

Snow is consistent with global warming, say scientists

Britain may be in the grip of the coldest winter for 30 years and grappling with up to a foot of snow in some places but the extreme weather is entirely consistent with global warming, claim scientists.

Full story here. Of course, everything is "consistent" with global warming according to the advocates.
