IMAGINARY CHANGES OF CLIMATE.
January 10, 1871
“a plentiful crop of speculation from weather prophets and projectors, and half-instructed meteorologists, and all the
philosophic tribe of Laputa in general, to whom the periodical press now affords such fatal facilities”
“We have often noticed that in the tabular statements of those compilers of weather records who write to the Times …. almost every month one of the driest or wettest, or windiest, coldest or hottest, ever known. Much observation, which ought to correct a tendency to exaggerate, seems in some minds to have rather a tendency to increase it.”
