G'morning Doug,

 MM> 10 degrees extra here would be very welcome  -  even if it did
 MM> bring out all the local doomsayers praying for an early global
 MM> warming...
 DC> The thing is I can watch the history channel and see shows that
 DC> describe how the weather goes in cycles of hot-cold in the 1000's
 DC> of years range.

We're very hot on Political Correctness here - and to hell with 
emprirical or scientific evidence. If our Greeney leaders tell us 
we're creating Global Warming,  we all stop passing wind...

 DC> I ocasionaly drink a hard cider or "wine cooler".
 DC> When I still had my teeth(and ache's) i would get a good
 DC> kentukey wisky to dull the pain.

Raised in England by Scottish forbears fond of whisky - but love 
the Southern Comfort of any good rye.... for medicinal purposes, 
of course... 

NZ cider is very nice,  but the local champayne suits my medic- 
monitored aged soul even better.

:-)

Miles.
