it's time to ask the bank for a loan. I need to start a grasshopper farm and a worm farm. This way I have a leg up on the competition. NavyBuckeye's Buggy Bugs....they're tasty....and nutritious. I can get them put on the shelf right next to the tofu. Anyone else want in while the market is good.

 Then the lefties will criticize me for making a profit and invent a bug tax so that the poor down the street can be government assisted and afford bugs too.

 So ridiculous. 

“Were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers or newspapers without government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter”  - Thomas Jefferson

If there's a food shortage, and people are forced to eat bugs. It won't be because of an imaginary problem like AGW.

It'll be because of the real problem of idiots who force the world to stop using so called fossil fuels. And then use the food needed by the world to fuel their cars and private jets.

All so they can wash away their guilt, and keep a feeling of smug elitist arrogance.

It's easy to tell people how to live when your mouth is full.

These people are the danger.

Noel, not to worry, it's going to be just fine. We are very adaptable by design. We used to eat dinosaurs until AGC wiped them out. We are now in the "farm animal" stage of culinary habits. We will enjoy life and prosper during the worm and bug era.

 I am so fed up, at this late date, with the kooks who tout AGW stories that I hardly ever read anything about it. My perverse sense of humor, at times, takes over my being and I cannot resist being corny.

I ask for forgiveness in advance----

This was all experienced in 1521 when the Holy Roman Emperor Charles the Fifth held the Diet of Worms. It didn't resolve the problem then, it won't now!!!!!!!!

Aaaah, Global Worming!!!!!

Here's a question for anyone who believes humans are killing the planet and that said humans are also products of non-divine forces: Even without arguing the validity of the IAGWC (Impending Anthropogenic Global Warming Catastrophe), why do you have a problem with such an event in the first place?

Actually worms are not that bad.  And if you look hard enough you can find crickets, grasshoppers ants and the like for your gormet consumption.

Nuke em til they glow then shoot em in the dark.

I remember when I attended Air Force Survival School in summer.  We had to eat a couple grasshoppers, worms, (boiled and raw) and ants. They do have a suprising amount of life-sustaining proteins!

Here's the scoop...not for the quesy: Raw worms are crunchy (due to the soil inside them) but otherwise have little flavor.

Boiled worms look just like fat cooked spaghetti and have no flavor and no dirt. A good Lefty-Sauce like Newman's Own and some all-natural Tofu-Parmesian and your set. Don't forget a nice bottle of California wine made from child-labor free grapes.

Grasshoppers tended to taste a little bit like a fruit drink with no sugar.

Ants taste like lemon drops.  No kidding! Just stay away from fire ants!

Bottom line is that there's no need to panic just because all animals will be banned due to greenhouse gas farts, and all grains will be used for bio-fuels. When we sit down to a plate of spaghetti-worms, just remember to use the proper seasonings!

And don't forget to pull off a grasshopper's legs. You don't want it to get caught in your throat.

Big frackin' deal.

This sounds like the average Japanese game show.

I think we should eat the Warm Earthers. I'm sure they taste like chicken.

Check out my exclusive edit of BBC News America's interview with Mrs Clinton: It's news to me!

ESPN pokes a little fun at the failed hurricane predictions.

"...Gray declared, 'We are improving our skill in seasonal prediction with an improved level of understanding.' He predicted his predictions would get better -- and was wrong about that, too."

That quote is great.

If conservatives are RIGHT, then liberals must be WRONG.

The crap like this, leads to crappy policy. 

There is a fantastic post at Anthony Watts sight, about solar activity and the potential to be going into a new Dalton Minimum.

The underlying story is how the politicization of science leads to dangerous policy.  The promotion of factoids leading to warming policy will mean we won't be prepared for a turn in the Pacific Decadal Oscillation combined with an extended period of sun activity and the potential damage to crops.  North America/Europe amongst others will adapt.  We have the wealth.  We'll pay through the nose mind you, especially in the short term.  Just look what happens to basic vegetable prices when cold snaps are experienced in Calif/Fla, etc.  Imagine that for extended periods of time.  The ones who will seriously suffer will be the poor nations/people, because, like in the DDT case, some people push their inane morality take on them. 

If the science is right and a doubling of CO2 leads to an increase of 1.1 deg C., thank goodness for that. (I'm not a believer in the unsubstantiated, historically refuted, uncontrolled positive feedback scenarios - hence I'm a skeptic).  Burn more coal baby.  We have lots of it and it's loaded with Carbon.  Get the full benefit of a doubling of CO2.  We will need the heat.

There are 2 types of politicians.  Those who know AGW is a sham and stupid ones.

  As usual, they got it bass ackward!

  We will be forced to eat people!
