Snow….

January 31, 2008 |

When I was a little boy we still did a Christmas Pagent in school. With Wisemen, assorted Shepards, an, I fear Freddy the train was relegated as an oxen lowing. It was Christmas, it was cold and Bethlehem was, so far as I remember, snowy.

Years later I read The Seven Pillars of Wisdom. Sure, Laurence was beaten by Turks and ignored by the British military establishment; but mainly he was unhappily cold. (He quite liked heat. And, of course, the screen writers put the line, “The trick is not to mind that it hurts”)

So it is not at all shocking, as the world returns to a normal climate, that it snowed in the Middle East today. Again.

My warmist buddies will, no doubt, argue that this is just more proof of climate change. I suspect we will hear a lot of that as the Earth cools and, I hope, reverts to the mean I so enjoyed as a child.
