If you don't have a basic understanding of what constitutes a "trend", please do not speak on the current debate. This article is nothing but fluff served up as redmeat for the political base.

One single year does not a trend make. Common sense can take you places if you let it.

I only go by the Chinese weather records that go back well over 400 years.A trend can somewhat be identified in that length of time,but thousands of years would be more like it.
