tories. Remember that big problem with the sea ice that climate change was going to take care of? All the sea ice, and then we'd have problems, wouldn't we? Well, according to the Daily Skeptic's Chris Morrison, there's been a massive recovery in Antarctic sea ice. And even the officially U.S.-based National Snow and Ice Data Center confirms that it's sort of back into its normal zone, proving that the variation was probably just natural variation. So the sea ice melting doesn't seem to be any indication of climate change, but it was predicted.

And then of course you've heard about the coral reefs. The coral reefs were being destroyed by climate change, except I don't know if you missed the stories where it seems like they're all coming back. But the climate change is worse. How are they coming back? Oh, maybe there's some natural variation. How about that?

Sea level. Remember all those beach houses that used to be good but now the water rose and now you can't live there? Neither do I. So climate change didn't predict sea level, coral reefs, sea ice. Oh, but it did predict temperature. So I mean that's true, right? It did predict the temperature, didn't it? Or is it possible that we're measuring that wrong too?

Of course we're measuring it wrong. The temperature might be going up. I wouldn't know. But there's no way we can know. We don't have any kind of reliable mechanism for measuring the temperature of the entire planet over time. That is so far from being a thing that humans could do. But the news tells you they can do it, so you should believe it because it's on the news.

Well, the Trump effect has reached Chicago because a couple of the aldermen — I think it's funny that Chicago has aldermen. Is there any other city that has aldermen? Is that just a Chicago word? I got the aldermen. Florida has elderly men, so I
