A new analysis of 2,000 years of tree ring data has quickly made climate change deniers' list of greatest hits to the theory of manmade global warming.

The tree rings "prove [the] climate was WARMER in Roman and Medieval times than it is now," the British newspaper the Daily Mail reported last week, "and [the] world has been cooling for 2,000 years."

I agree the jury is still out on several theories, but reports last night show the Midwest in in the worst drought in 50+ years and the North Pole ice cap has shrunk significantly since the 1970s.

El Nino is also supposed to become more pronounced by early fall, which typically means a wetter, colder winter for the South and more moisture for other parts of the country. Regardless, be prepared for higher prices at the grocery stores and gas pumps with the corn crop doing so poorly.
