    If you think it’s a no-brainer that humans are causing catastrophic global warming, here’s your opportunity to earn an easy US $125,000.00!
    That’s right, the prize money has increased as we seek warming advocates’ price threshold!

    The prize has gone unclaimed for 85 days!

    Also, see this:
    The Atlantic basin will likely see a very active hurricane season this year, though not as active as in 2004 and 2005, according to a well-known Colorado State University forecasting team.
    “The activity of these two years was unusual, but within the natural bounds of hurricane variation,” said hurricane forecasting guru William Gray, who issued his first seasonal forecast 24 years ago.

    Gray is (I believe) a warming skeptic, and even he errs on the side of increased hurricane activity here. Of course, this has been a lighter-than-usual hurricane season.

    And as for the IJ article, is there any indication that increased Nat Cat losses result from increased building in areas frequented by big storms?
