“EXCEPTIONAL YEARS.
A HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA FLOODS AND DROUGHT.BY J. M. GUINN. March 4, 1889
If there is one characteristic of his State, of which the true Californian is prouder than another, it is its climate. With his tables of mean temperature and records of cloudless days and gentle sunshine, he is prepared to prove that California has the most glorious climate in the world, Should the rains descend and the floods prevail, or should the heavens become as brass, and neither the former nor the latter rains fall, these climatic extremes, he excuses on the plea of exceptional years, It is with the record that these exceptional years have made that I propose to deal in this paper. Equable conditions, whether climatic or social, have nothing of the tragic in them, and history delights in the tragic. While Central and Southern California have been about equally affected by floods and droughts, my record of their effects applies principally to Southern California.
EXCEPTIONAL YEARS: A HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA FLOODS AND DROUGHT
Marxists think that geological history began when they took over the government.
From experience, I know what you say is spot-on true for liberal/progressive/leftist sheep and puppets. Because I once was left of center, and I know them well. (I know you do too.)
I believe, however, that their Big Brother leaders – those both in front of and behind the curtain – know the history well, and manipulate it to fit their totalitarian pursuits – especially when history/geological records are terribly inconvenient to their totalitarian pursuits.
This is nothing less than an excuse for their repetitive forecast failures. First they say that “climate change” is going to cause drought and the end of snow. Now the opposite is happening and so they blame “climate change” causing an “erratic reality”!
Very interesting read, Tony. I’ve lived in California since 1948 and I can say that we have a history of wet years followed by dry years. 1955 and 1964 were major floods where I live in Humboldt. Co. They are easy to search, even on Google.
The Foursquare article should have said ‘the return of El Nino’ and unprecedented blah blah rainfall.
