Snow Dump Brings Early Start To Ski Season
So much for mythical manmade warming!
Massive snowfalls cover Australian ski fields
Perisher to open this Saturday, a week early
Falls Creek, Mt Buller had 30cm of snow
Perisher had 30cm of snow last night with even more snow fall expected over
the next 24 hours.
Perisher plans to open Front Valley for skiing and snowboarding, a week
ahead of schedule.
SKIERS will be able hit the slopes at one Australian ski field this weekend
thanks to an early snow dump.
Perisher has announced it will be the first to open its ski fields on
Saturday - a week early - following heavy snowfall, low temperatures and
continuing snow-making.
Perisher chief executive Peter Brulisauer said proceeds from the weekend
will be donated to local charities.
Other Australian ski fields are also gearing up for a great start to the ski
season, with approximately 30cm of snow covering Falls Creek and Mt Buller
on the weekend.
Falls Creek spokeswoman Debbie Howie said as the temperature dropped the
resort would continue to make snow, grooming it and packing it down.
"It's fantastic, it's such a good cover. It's wintry, it's white," she said.
"At this stage it's looking very promising," she told the Herald Sun.
It comes after a big low pressure system gave autumn a shivering, blustering
send-off, dumping heavy rain and sweeping strong wind across Victoria.

"It is a remarkable fact that despite the worldwide expenditure of perhaps
US$50 billion since 1990, and the efforts of tens of thousands of scientists
worldwide, no human climate signal has yet been detected that is distinct
from natural variation."
Bob Carter, Research Professor of Geology, James Cook University, Townsville
"A major problem has been the co-option of climate science by politics,
ambition, greed, and what seems to be a hereditary human need for a
righteous cause."
"What better cause than "saving" the planet, especially if one can get
ample, secure funding at the same time?"
William Happer, Cyrus Fogg Brackett Professor of Physics, Princeton
University.
"The claim is that the temperature has changed from ~288.0 to ~288.8�K in
about 150 years, which, if true, means to me that the temperature has been
amazingly stable, and both human health and happiness have definitely
improved in this 'warming' period,".
Nobel Laureate Dr. Ivar Giaever:
"If climate has not "tipped" in over 4 billion years it's not going to tip
now due to mankind. The planet has a natural thermostat"
Richard S. Lindzen, Atmospheric Physicist, Professor of Meteorology MIT,
Former IPCC Lead Author
"A core problem is that science has given way to ideology. The scientific
method has been dispensed with, or abused, to serve the myth of man-made
global warming."
"The World Turned Upside Down", Melanie Phillips
"Computer models are built in an almost backwards fashion: The goal is to
show evidence of AGW, and the "scientists" go to work to produce such a
result. When even these models fail to show what advocates want, the data
and interpretations are "fudged" to bring about the desired result"
"The World Turned Upside Down", Melanie Phillips
"Ocean acidification looks suspiciously like a back-up plan by the
environmental pressure groups in case the climate fails to warm: another try
at condemning fossil fuels!"

Before attacking hypothetical problems, let us first solve the real problems
that threaten humanity. One single water pump at an equivalent cost of a
couple of solar panels can indeed spare hundreds of Sahel women the daily
journey to the spring and spare many infections and lives.
Martin De Vlieghere, philosopher
"All it takes to find oneself called a 'denier' is to seek a sense of
proportion about environmental problems"
Mark Lynas, The God Species
