Global Warming Update: It’s Raining Irony!

Here are two blasts of irony on the global warming front, both courtesy of Drudge:

First, the House Energy and Commerce Committee Subcommittee on Energy and Air Quality has canceled its hearing set for today entitled, “Climate Change: Are Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Human Activities Contributing to a Warming of the Planet?” due to freezing rain and snow here in Washington.

In a similar vein, a showing of Al Gore’s movie on the campus of Maryville University in St Louis set for last night was also canceled for the same reason.

Remember, when it’s hot it’s climate, when it’s cold, it’s weather.
