What's Up With the Random Summer Weather?

Summer weather this week. Why is it here?

Two words: gorgeous weather. It's been in the seventies all week. Because of this beautiful weather, nature has finally given us a chance to break out our shorts, tank tops, and sandals and to let us enjoy the sun while we could. And another two words to mother nature: thank you.

Though this weather is only staying here for a week, what could possibly be causing this? I honestly believe it's global warming. This is based on opinion and there are no real facts or statistics to back up my theory, but global warming does cause a lot of weird weather. How ever did we go from that to summer weather?

But let's forget about global warming for a second. Another thing that doesn't seem to click in my mind is that why do we need an excuse to clean up the environment? Why couldn't we have done it earlier? Why now? As my father would say, "That's a rhetorical question, Sabrina." It just seems a little odd that we would need an excuse to finally be careful about over consumerism and to invent cars that reduce the amount of carbon dioxide put into the atmosphere.

And as my rant about gorgeous weather comes to an end, I think we all secretly wonder why it's here, but enjoy it while we can.

Another problem: When notified of a reply to a comment I could click the link in the email to go toRead More the article. That was not possible this time. So because a small minority zooms there computer the layout should be as it is? I don't think so. All that white space means that an article that could be read with just one or two clicks to scroll through is now going to take more scrolling to view. One thing that seems to be missing in today's world are web designers who (1) change the layout just because and (2) web designers who have neglected to consider the audience. The more I look at this layout the less I like it. The font needs to be darker than it is. the blue (like in "announcements") needs to be bolder. Overall, on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 best), I rank the new "improved" design a 3.
