I for one, am very happy you found this and posted it. My late Father ( He passed on February 11th 2013 at age 84 after my Mother passed
away October 14th 2012 age 67 ) used to always say people blew most environmental/cosmological finding way out of proportion and gave many examples
like this one. I have no idea how he remembered so many of these findings dating back so long before he was born, but he did. My late maternal
Grand-Mother who passed December 13th 2008 at age 95 years, and grew up in a totally different way, also collaborated what my Dad would say. Plus,
I'd go to the school, University or public library or records and check out what they would say. It ALWAYS matched what one or both would say while
others ran around in a panic lol!
When in Junior high, I had a project assigned to me. I'd just turned 14. The project was to interview the eldest person in the community. He'd
just turned 104 years old. Not only was he still sharp minded, he talked of the wars, politics, religion and the panic so many people get into over
environmental/cosmological findings in his entire lifetime as well as what his Grand-Parents and parents told him. He said things are ALWAYS changing
and the Farmer's Almanac had in it for that year, the coldest worst winter in history leading into the hottest summer. Amazingly, he had scrap books
filled with scientific studies predicting all matter of environmental/cosmological changes throughout his own lifetime as well as some clipping his
parents had had. It was the same old same that is still occurring.
lol! We had the mildest winter ever recorded in the area. The most snow that year was a little skiff on Christmas Eve. Most everyone wore only fall
jackets that winter and by February, it was almost summery. But...we did actually have the hottest summer ever recorded that year. No resulting
human fatalities that I can recall, but much to crops, & wildlife followed by the worst & most forest fires and evacuations ever recorded in the area.
Of course. A Northern Manitoba, Canada with summer temperatures reach up to +52 degrees Celsius. Who'd a thunk it huh? There were resulting
deaths from all the smoke to those with mild to severe lung conditions.
But another mild winter followed, followed by slightly higher than normal temps for summer with drought. People were panicking over more potential
forest fires, yet seriously, what was left to burn lol!
It became my belief that these predictions are so hit & miss that the chances of being struck by lightning or winning an over million dollar lottery
are more likely though the older I get, 49 in August, the more I too begin to doubt and question everything....
Many blessings to you and yours
