I thought "polar vortex" was a patented new fabric for winter wear. When none of the Iowa City stores seemed to have any in stock, further research revealed it's just more scientist-speak.
Scientists want to have a scientific explanation for everything, whether they really understand it or not.
No wonder an ever-increasing number of Republicans -- now 57% -- are coming to reject even the theory of evolution -- as a recent Pew Center poll revealed.
They're right to be skeptical.
It turns out the cause of this frigid weather we're having? It's God's "cold shoulder revenge" against those "climate change theory" scientists.
For a complete explanation of the poll, and the cold, see "Polar Vortex,"
