The "brutal" winter is on the attack again, bringing sleet and heavy
snow to the mid-Atlantic region. Previous storms targeted the deep
south including Dallas, Texas, and several hammered New England. By
March 4, Boston was just 2 inches away from hitting an all-time
record for snow, Boston.com reported.
It's a reality more in keeping with media warnings from the 1970s
than today's arguments about global warming.
Then, CBS anchor Walter Cronkite, the dean of American journalism,
was warning about an "ice age." Cronkite cited scientific claims
that the Earth was cooling and "the full extent of the new ice age
won't be reached for 10,000 years."
That's completely different from the media's line today that global
warming is settled science....snip

Makes sense, doesn't it?

And Walter stole it from Popular Science. It was a cover story there
first. It was a great magazine back then. In the 70s when the 3
"BS" stations had a news story about new products or technology, I
had read it usually a year or more earlier in Popular Science.
