Welcome![edit]

WELCOME!! Hello, Smithsmith! I want to personally welcome you on behalf of the Wikipedia community. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you haven't already, you can put yourself in the new user log and thelist of users so you can be properly introduced to everyone. Don't forget to be bold, and don't be afraid of hungry Wikipedians...there's a rule about not biting newcomers. Some other good links are the tutorial, how to edit a page, or if you're really stuck, see the help pages. Wikipedia is held up by Five Pillars...I recommend reading about them if you haven't already. Finally, it would be really helpful if you would sign your name on talk pages, so people can get back to you quickly. It's easy to do this by clicking the button (next to the one with the "W" crossed out) one from the end on the left. If that's confusing, or if you have any questions, feel free to drop me a at my talk page (by clicking the plus sign (+) next to the tab at the top that says "edit this page")...and again, welcome!--ViolinGirl 21:10, 24 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

No Personal Attacks[edit]

Hello, I have removed some blatant and quite senseless personal attacks from Talk:Medieval Warm Period. Please refrain from further such attacks, you can be blocked for it. Please carefully read and seriously consider: Wikipedia:No personal attacks. Thank you, Vsmith 02:29, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I guess I was a little harsh when I said that "there will always be little men running around like Chicken Little saying "the sky is falling, the sky is falling?" If you took personal offense to it then I am truly sorry. I will be more tactful in the future. --Smithsmith 00:05, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Rumour has it that you have some misapprehensions about global cooling. William M. Connolley 10:22, 25 January 2006 (UTC).[reply]

No, I am just glad that the temperature trend during the last 30 years has been positive rather than negative. You wouldn't believe how cold is used to get in Missouri when the Arctic blast came through. It can literally go from 50 or 60 Farenheit to minus 10 in a day or less, and last for weeks. Luckily this year, we haven't had any major Arctic blasts, only minor ones that lasted a couple of days or less.--Smithsmith 13:11, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
