Regarding the discussion of whether extreme temperature events are caused by more variation or a shift in the mean, I think the possibility of an increase in variation was ruled out to soon by the panelists. While much or most of the increases in extreme events are due to shifts in mean, there is evidence for an additional push from an increase in variation. See this article for ice-duration evidence: Benson et al (2012). Climatic Change. V112, p 299.

Damn, with all the scientific fraud and Shell cover ups, it's hard to get a true picture of climate change. But don't think we've all gone psychotic and are about to eat someone's face like in Miami. They say the North Pole may completely melt this year, and that would explain my useless summer. No, it's not your imagination that this has never occured in your life time and is just a once in a life time thing, the North Pole has never completely melted before. I was expecting it in 2015.

Oh, my little contribution..., summers are cold in Rimouski as of late. I think, can't be sure, but the North Pole may be melting faster now and sending us the cold winds from the melting ice down here. I'm confident that when the Pole is completely melted that some of your Central American heat will reach us, like the twisters in Virgina. But we;ll see in ten years, that Pole ice is persistent. Also, the ocean streams are slowing down, killing fish and making for a scary new cooling issue.

From what I gather from these talks, we'd need a few million americans to drop dead in the streets during a heat wave. My hopes have never been so high after these talks. I'm really counting on you to report on the first hundred thousands droping dead before 2020. There is no coverages of cities being taken off the map such as Joplin. If we could get a count of cities being blown off the map, it would be appreciated. I'd also like to see a number count on the cities that are abandon as well.
