Global Warming?????

I, the Flower Child recently visited the heart of the cornbelt in Iowa and Illinois. The weather there was not as warm as the farmers need to insure a succesful crop of corn. When the corn is preparing to tassle it needs warm days. The high temperature was 80 degrees and the desired temperature is 90 degrees or even a bit warmer. I heard famers hope for warmer weather. I even hear one say that somehow this Global Warming situation must not be true in as much as the temperatures were not even up to normal in early July.
For those who may not appreciate this situation, please remember that a lot of our food stuffs depend on a bountiful corn crop.
