Warm everywhere else.

     "Oil prices have slumped as rising winter fuel inventories and mild 
     weather eased worries of a fuel crunch in the United States, the world's 
     biggest consumer. 

     Warmer-than-normal winter weather cut nearly 500,000 barrels a day off
     world demand in October and November, Goldman Sachs estimated in a
     report."

Perhaps.  Wait till spring to make that claim, as the winter has just begun.
There have been reports of later freezup and earlier spring thaws as well as early 
flower blooms in spring.  Of course, hotter summers may also happen, which would 
increase the electricity needed for airconditioning.   And, warmer sea surface
temperatures may well produce stronger tropical storms.
Then too, the higher price of oil lately may also have damped down oil useage.

As with any big change, there will be winners and losers.

Well the funny thing is they reckon eastern Europe, esp the UK & Ireland 
will actually get colder as a result of global warming.

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!!
