You Can't Make This Stuff Up!

This has got to be one of the stupidest and most hilarious things I've ever heard!

Scientists at the National Observatory in Athens, Greece, have studied over 500 paintings from almost 200 artists to find ones that were completed around the same time as major volcanic eruptions. Guess what they were looking for?

Clues to the amount of dust in the air, and the corresponding effects on global temperatures.

That's right, these scientists are looking at paintings to try to draw scientific conclusions about global warming!

PAINTINGS!!!

You just can't make this stuff up!!! If there was any remaining doubt about how little the entire global warming movement has to do with actual evidence, this shreds it completely.

There's my two cents.
