Respectfully, the same question could be asked of other threads that haven't been challenged.
I think it's cool (no pun intended). Never been ice skating myself.
You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

so, are we supposed to debate this or something then? illuminate me.

OK, let's make the thread the discussion. Since you've questioned its presence, why this one and not "Does this kid have potential?" or "Leave.EU switched registration to Ireland to avoid losing EU domain name"?
They're all innocuous IMO, so why is only this one called out?

Okay. If the thread needs a contentious issue, perhaps I could argue this is an example of the limited impact of Global Warming.

I'm sure Osman will say I don't have any to speak of.

And the impact on Northern Europe will be ... the loss of ice skating?

Quote by Chryses
This is where I part company with the many who are concerned. My understanding is that the levels of carbon dioxide will continue to increase for years. This suggests to me that the serious money should be spent not on trying to avoid the inevitable, but rather to respond to it. How best to mitigate the unavoidable impact.

If That's the biggest problem we face from global warming, we've got nothing to worry about. But most folks recognize that's half of nothing.
Quote by Chryses
While we have all read proposals of how this or that policy is expected to reduce the GHGs, I have not yet read proposals of what to do with the people whose lives will be changed (some dramatically) by the changes in the climate.
