Maxeiner, Miersch And Magdeburg: Superstitious Spiegel Devolves To The Dark Ages, Blames Floods On “Deniers”
When the Little Ice Age brought widespread crop failures, mass starvation, and disease in populated Europe some centuries ago, the enlightened ones blamed the climate-related misery and misfortune on the black magic of sorcerers and witches – who were promptly tried and burned at the stake. In other cultures, people performed rain-dances, human sacrifices, or other bizarre rituals, all in a futile attempt to appease the weather gods. Of course the victims of these rituals were often political opponents.

THE HOCKEY SCHTICK: NYTimes: The Dog Ate My Global Warming
Climate scientists blame the oceans, or something, for 35 billion kilotons-equivalent of missing energy...The scientists may not understand what’s going on, but it is a 100% certainty that any prescription for the planet’s supposed malady is going to cost prosperity in the developed nations, but it will cost lives in the developing world.
