On that post, titled "Junk Controversy, Not Junk Science," Cullen
supported the theory that increases in levels of gases, particularly
carbon dioxide, in the atmosphere have led to global warming, and she
challenged meteorologists who say it is the result of cyclical weather
patterns.

change, then maybe the (American Meteorological Society) shouldn't give
them a Seal of Approval," Cullen wrote.

weather forecast Thursday on ABC 33/40. It was picked up by The Drudge
Report three hours later.

"Well, well," Spann wrote on his blog. "Some `climate expert' on `The
Weather Channel' wants to take away AMS certification from those of us
who believe the recent `global warming' is a natural process. So much
for `tolerance,' huh?

Corruptubucuns, perhaps you could ask him to marry you. That's just one
