Live Aid … So Madonna is now a scientist?

Name the last meteorological genius known as much for her open tip bras as for her scientific acumen. Go ahead, think. I’ll wait.

The answer is, apparently, Madonna. Not only has the former Detroit pop princess dropped her Midwestern nasal voice for a fake British accent, but the vocalist who could be Gwen Stefani’s mom now wants us to believe that she knows more about future climate change than, say, our beloved Twin Cities meteorologist, Dave Dahl.

That’s about all I got out of the few minutes of Al Gore’s global warming Kool-Aid concert that I could stomach. (Of course, the Jonestown massacre reference is probably lost on anyone under 40.)

So, while the sexbot-mom, Madonna, plots new ways to offend the Vatican during her next concert tour, remember, you don’t need a scientific Ph.D. to predict climate change impacts. In fact, it’s better if you have no scientific background at all, just like Algore and Madonna.

One final pitch: Instead of Algore Convenient Falsehood, try watching - at least once, if for no other purpose than for pennance after watching Live Aid - try watching the BBC documentary, “The Great Global Warming Swindle.”

You’ll never look at Algore (or any other invertabrit) the same way again!
