That's fine Tin. This was ALWAYS a BS thread, refer my first post.
So goto the thread "extreme weather savages the planet" and discuss specific points I raised:

I remember that the weather was "extreme" when I was at high school. So much so they needed to find a scapegoat and they did: The ATOMIC BOMB. This was, of course in the '50s when the super-powers were doing above ground testing.
The point I'm trying to make is that the weather is never benign. Think about it: If you DID have months of uninterrupted "perfect" weather [happens here most years] pretty soon you'd have a drought. [Happening here now]
Billions of people around the world depend on monsoonal rains. Now it's only a small matter of degree between a monsoon trough which gives you good rain, another that floods and a little worse still and you have a destructive cyclone. But without the unsettled weather everything dies in the drought.
Please tell me what is normal and when did we see it?
I'm sure the ghosts of the tens of thousands of seamen who died in their little wooden ships during severe storms would be unimpressed if you were to tell them they had it good, sailing the seas before AGW made them violent.
This idea that somehow weather is now "worse" is complete crap. Weather has never been kind for long.
