They were going to go swimming at the North Pole in minus 100 degree temperatures. They were really trying to prove something to the innocent 2nd graders kids following their progress on the Weather Network. And ABC ran their vidiolog catching all the inconvenient truth that they discovered on disk.
I just can’t get over it. They packed swimsuits for a trip to the North Pole in wintertime. You wouldn’t do that for Florida. You are only allowed one that stupid in a lifetime. That goes for the Weather Network too.

[...] Frankly, I have had the true believers flock here. I have had the Koz Kidz speculate as to whether they could "turn" me. (Short answer – no.) But none really want to address that one big elephant. They try to obscure it by saying the rate of change is different but still don't actually step up and talk to the elephant. Or discuss publicity stunts gone wrong, either. Personally, I think the burning of oil for energy is stupid in the long run. Starving people to fuel vehicles is even more stupid. There are things that can be doing – incrementally – to make it better. But the Gorezilla's mammoth energy consumption while pontificating is not – at all – helpful. (That he also buys his "carbon offsets" from himself while consuming gargantuan amounts of electricity also makes him a flagrant hypocrite.) [...]

That article must be false. Everyone knows that there is no more polar ice at the North Pole and the poor polar bears are stranded on the tiny floes that remain adrift in the vast expanse of the now thawed Arctic Ocean. Sheesh.
