Confused Vermonters



My friend from Vermont just sent me an article from CNN about the effects of global warming on Vermont. Apparently, not only are the ski places having a bit of a rough time - but people throughout the state are feeling quite discombobulated. The maple-syrup industry is feeling particularly hard done by, as it can no longer predict when the trees will start producing syrup. The above picture is of a local, 4 person protest against the weather. The protestors are rafting down a river which should be frozen at this time of year. The article is pretty funny, especially for those of you familiar with New England humor. Best of luck on a sunday night.
