This one is just too funny not to blog. Apparently some British global warming believers had their nude bike ride disturbed by unseasonably cold weather:
Naked cyclists braved chilly conditions to demonstrate against climate change and campaign for rights.
About 80 brave bikers stripped before taking a short trip across Manchester amid unseasonably cold weather on Friday.
The group rode under the slogan 'real rights for bikes', and say they were naked to highlight cyclists' vulnerability on city streets and draw attention to 'the destructive effects of car culture'.

June 16, 2008 - 09:19 ET by nkviking75Why do libs have an inordinate desire to get naked when they protest? Maybe you have to be an exhibitionist to be a semi-professional protestor.
When you put the clowns in charge, don't be surprised when a circus breaks out.

June 16, 2008 - 11:25 ET by MassConservI imagine they don't have trouble drawing flies while riding nude, given that some of them don't necessarily bathe regularly. ;-)
Heh. Good point.

June 16, 2008 - 09:19 ET by taterI also saw a story about people riding naked through Boulder, Colorado protesting the same thing. Didn't Denver just go through some days of being in the 40s and Aspen reopen because of plenty of snow for the slopes?
In ten years they'll be riding their snowmobiles naked to protest global cooling.

Wrong word!
June 16, 2008 - 11:41 ET by Hoosier DaddyPlease, please, please... The correct word is UNSEASONAL as in not typical for the season. "Unseasonable" means you can't add salt or pepper to it.
This has been a pet peeve for many years.
"The destructive effects of
June 16, 2008 - 14:05 ET by mattm"The destructive effects of car culture."
That's what it's always been about. This adds to the proof that these people aren't interested in the environment or science, they're sole purpose is to push their socio-cultural agenda.
little help
June 16, 2008 - 15:17 ET by ort777Alright, I need a little assistance. I know I shouldn't even be doing this but I'm trying to look for a way out of a youtube debate and I'd love to have a little backup. I've got 2 people I'm going back and forth with, one an atheist, the other a global warming lover. I've been juggling back and forth with them on the stupid Harrison Ford waxing his chest to show the pain of deforestation youtube site. A little assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
