Dear WeatherCat climate watchers,
The Weather Channel has an interesting video comparing the ice coverage on the Great Lakes from 2014 to now:

It is definitely a dramatic change!

Frightening changes! :o [cold]
Completely off-topic comment for those who dislike being counted as "eyeballs":
Had to watch a 25 second ad so I could view the 42 second vid. [banghead] I think one could type the four(?) text blocks in less time. [rolleyes2] But the graphics do tell the story with more emotion? :)

Dear X-Air and WeatherCatters unhappy with the state of the Internet,

Regrettably, I could not agree more. My first contact with what is now the Internet was in college when it was mostly a "gentlemen’s" domain run by academics, some government agencies, and associated contractors. The privatization of the Internet certainly hasn't improved it and the commercialization has become darn right petty. There is no such thing as a free lunch, but unfortunately, there wasn't the resolve to come up with a more reasonable funding model for the Internet than what we have now. It definitely does not reflect well on the society that allowed this to happen.
