I can't remember having ever seen a record or anything about the 10 or
20 (?) cyclones that occur annually in the Arctic. I take it that these
storms are due to temperature rises in the seas there?

That's if my theory about the recent findings from Southampton holds
water; that an interruption in the ocean gyres allows the heat
build-ups assosciated with hurricanes etc.

Not really an interesting topic for conversation as compared to -for
example; door stepping the leader of the Liberal party in the middle of
the night seems to be. I suppose this is another example of dumbing
down?

I mean, who wouldn't rather listen to a closet homo such as the
Archbishop of Cant when the alternative is Moses? (Bit of a hangover
from the Sickness Reveals there. Sorry.)
