Climate Always Changes
…and People Never Like It
James A. Marusek has catalogued some 14,000 extreme weather events covering the years from 1 A.D. to 1900 A.D.
But for some reason, people have short memories, or perhaps weather cycles are slightly longer than a generation. Whatever the case, people often say “there had not been such weather in 100 years†– as Dr. Sallie Baliunas recounts in this video on “Weather Cooking.â€
“Weather Cooking†was a crime that witches were accused of in the Medieval and Little Ice Age periods. When the weather got bad – it was clear to the ‘locals’ that someone had been up to something.
So – witches were executed for ‘cooking’ bad weather. (No wonder weathermen and weather women always look uncomfortable when their predictions of a nice day turned to rain!)
