Please don't assume that anything you read in the Sun or the Daily Mail bears any resemblance at all to what most people in Britain actually think

There is global warming, its just caused by HAARP instead of CO2. Obama is attacking the Brits with his weather machine just like Dubya attacked New Orleans with it.

Or perhaps just a "SMRT" button.

Current weather at McMurdo Station, Antarctica:
28 degrees F

Winds from the SE at 10 knots
Pretty warm for this time of year. Not that I'm complaining.

Who are 'Floridans'? Someone from there told me that only about 1 in 100 people in FL are actually born there. Everyone else is from somewhere else.

aren't they ALWAYS from the north at the South Pole?

Yeah, a gorgeous picture.
And here in DC we haven't had winter so much as a very long fall... and I hate it because I love snow too. Exercise AND get drunk at the same time. It's awesome. Plus it covers up the yard work I haven't finished, and is just plain pretty.
Oh yeah, and everything in my city comes to a halt once we get 2" - 3" of snow. If it's 6" or more then pretty much everything may be closed for more than one day. Most people just stay indoors and shut their doors so tight you'd think monsters roamed our streets, so it's very peaceful and quiet. After big snowfalls, and after I'm done with my shoveling, I like to go out adventuring... Wander through the snow, checking out the neighborhood and seeing what does manage to be open (holy crap, the McDonalds on Viers Mill Road doesn't close for farking ANYTHING!).

Nobody has done that yet, and that includes Big Man On Campus. He's actually poking his finger in the eye of the same people you are making fun of, only he insulted only the lefty half of them. (if that's who you mean)
Remember, due to global warming we can expect 4000% more, and more intense, hurricanes this year. Or tornadoes, or potatoes, whatever.

Or maybe you were referring to H.I., but H.I. is just poking Gore in the eye, not suggesting cold weather for a few days in the UK actually disproves a warming trend. It's humor that maybe you don't find it funny - which can be funny in itself (no offense to you in particular, but people reactions to a joke they didn't get or didn't understand was just a joke can be amusing)

Oh, a surprisingly large number of people in the UK have no heat. So that's why this is sort of a problem.

It's also helpful to remember that its pretty much always above 70% humidity, regardless of temperature
