Well, SOMETHING is changing rather quickly.
I grew up on a lake in Michigan. When I was 10, the lake would freeze over solidly every year. We'd go cross-country skiing and ice-skating on it. We would always have snow by early December. We'd get lots of snow every year and it would stick all winter.
By the time I was 16, the lake had stopped freezing over every year and even when it does, it certainly isn't trustworthy for walking on it. The snow no longer sticks, we haven't had a decent, snowy winter in years, and we keep having strange, 70°F days in the middle of February.
Does that mean global warming is happening? Of course not, but it does mean that something is changing the weather in the Midwest.

Your statement is in fact the exact attitude that causes America to be insular........
..... just try to think about how offensive your words might be in the future please, and how they might actually cause the very thing you a railing against.

one would think that would be the case. But we are just now starting to become enlightened to the facts, and there is a lot of momentum behind our present behavior. It is going to take a while to change course. I just hope the warning signs for the dead end street we are on have come soon enough for us to stop before we run off the end of the road at the speed we are going

Well said.
It's really fashionable at the moment to generalise and have a go at all Americans, based on the actions of a minority of them.

Hang on a minute, I never said "All Americans" are like that...
