Frequent hail confirms global cooling that started in 1998 2003 2008 yesterday. Colder air keeps less moisture, which means less rain. The little moisture left in the cold air is forced into pellets called ice (compare to the little ice age). This is like drinking hard liquor (less liquid per alcohol) vs. beer (lots of runs to the washroom). Insurance companies hate global cooling as it is bad for them and therefore for the economy. Ice pellets are no plant food and therefore global warming would be desirable. Higher temperatures would also melt the ice faster.
