Title: Should we add a "Weather and/or Natural Disasters category?
Post by: IronDioPriest on September 06, 2011, 09:51:04 PM: Rickl suggested a "Weather" category. In thinking about it, it seems like there is nearly always something being discussed here regarding weather and/or natural disasters. Floods, fires, tornadoes, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes, heat waves, cold waves, etc. The Global Warming category doesn't cover it. Should we add a new category for discussion of natural events in the news?

At Ticker Forum, their weather/natural disaster forum is called "Planetary Tantrums".

That's definitely appropriate. ;D

Post by: IronDioPriest on September 07, 2011, 07:53:58 PM: How about this idea?...

Global Warming insanity has become a caricature. The possibility that those attempting to foist socialism will be able to use AGW as a tool is dwindling daily.

So... what if we get rid of the Global Warming category, replace it with a weather & natural disasters category, move the contents of the AGW forum into the new category, and from that point forward, place AGW related items in the new weather category?

Thoughts?

Post by: charlesoakwood on September 07, 2011, 08:08:03 PM: Sounds good.

Or maybe leave the Global Warming stuff in the new Weather topic and not create another new topic.
