It seems to support it.<br />Are you (and IPCC) saying, for example, that "frequency" means both increased or decreased frequency, depending on the other stated factors?<br /><br />John PumaJohnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12479974040070719985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-55023423505789955732015-10-22T17:51:39.738-07:002015-10-22T17:51:39.738-07:00I don't understand what your question is.I don't understand what your question is.David Appellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03318269033139447591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28837843.post-34808583831753757172015-10-22T17:36:59.643-07:002015-10-22T17:36:59.643-07:00To David,
