In September of 2025, my work is generating the most income it ever has in my career. Yet, I'm being forced to shut down my successul operation, against my will, due to one cause alone: 95% of that revenue is being stolen by piracy and copyright infringement. I've lost more than $1 million to copyright infringement in the last 15 years, and it's finally brought an end to my professional storm chasing operation. Do not be misled by the lies of infringers, anti-copyright activists and organized piracy cartels. This page is a detailed, evidenced account of my battle I had to undertake to just barely stay in business, and eventually could not overcome. It's a problem faced by all of my colleagues and most other creators in the field.
It came to my attention that the following US Senate Committee report was released yesterday, which I found interesting:
Like most meteorologists and people involved in weather-related careers, I have been holding the cautious but open-minded 'we don't know yet' position on whether man-made global warming is happening. I haven't been a full-on skeptic as of yet (though that is changing), but I've always had a problem with both the media hysteria and the way objectors have been dismissed, disrespected and ignored. This has not been, and still is not, a settled issue, no matter what you'll hear politicians and media networks continue to say. What bothers me is the ones who are most prominent and outspoken on this issue have no experience in climate or weather issues themselves, while the views of many who work with and observe weather every day are not considered valid.
As with anything, I'm trying to keep an open mind about this, but the fact that so few involved are is making it hard to keep an unbiased perspective. I really hope some hard data in the coming years will settle this.
yea all the global warming hardcores should come shovel the snow break the ice and pay my heating bill in central Ill looking at a possible major ice event sunday . I hope global warming is a myth soon to be proven wrong but we will still try to cut down on emissions burn less fossil fuels because its the right thing to do . frankly I am to concerned about more spring summer high water on the missippi and sand bagging to worry much about 2 degrees average temp when this sunday the weather chanel is calling for a high of 65 and a low of 16 wow in my area 62343 Brian Cole Hull Illinois sny island levee district - Posted by brian cole from hull ill
