Saying that since it is cold in the winter, that proves that global warming doesn't exist, is like saying that since it is dark at night, the sun doesn't exist.

Really Neil.......
you would think after 118 pages you would have better logic......
Of course it is cold in the winter....duh. But that is not the argument.
No one....yes no one, has every said 'since it is cold in the winter.....'
and saying that make YOU look naïve (and silly.)
What is said is" Since it is COLDER this winter....." OR "since winters are getting COLDER...."
Or even, It's not man made......
But you know what someone did say.....
(CNSNews.com) – A 2007 prediction that summer in the North Pole could be
“ice-free by 2013”
that was cited by former Vice President Al Gore in his Nobel Peace Prize acceptance speech has proven to be off… by 920,000 square miles.
In his Dec. 10, 2007 “Earth has a fever” speech, Gore referred to a prediction by U.S. climate scientist Wieslaw Maslowski that the Arctic’s summer ice could “
completely disappear” by 2013 due to global warming caused by carbon emissions. 
Gore said that on Sept. 21, 2007, "scientists reported with unprecedented alarm that the North Polar icecap is, in their words, 'falling off a cliff.' One study estimated that it could be completely gone during summer in less than 22 years. Another new study to be presented by U.S. Navy researchers later this week warns that it could happen in as little as seven years, seven years from now." (and with a straight face!!!!)
