If you're keeping score, the latest news on global warming, er, climate change, is heavier, more frequent rainfall. Of course, this new study comes after headlines exclaimed GW would cause more droughts. Confused? Don't be. It's all part of the climate insecurity blanket we are now required to carry.

As one scientist said, "The wet regions will get wetter and the dry regions will get drier." Yep. So if they are wrong with one prediction, they'll still be right. I still don't understand how any  scientist can make such a ridiculous comment without a wink and a nod to the reporter.

And having known a number of journalists in my lifetime, I'll let you in on a little secret: many are sweetly gullible, equate bylines with orgasms, and have an alarmist's grasp of current events.
