Global Warming Insurance??? Seriously... that exists???

Yes global warming insurance does exist. The most common form is a list of weather related acts of god that could be caused by global warming. Which would obviously not be covered under ordinary plans. Ironically the things listed as happening are so remote that most companies will decide to not purchase the insurance.

You should probably run a search some of the things covered are rather hilarious. Things such as giant thermal updrafts, falling animals, rogue dust storms, die offs, plumes, plagues, and blights. The point being is this if there is something to insure that is probably not going to happen there is a plan through your local insurance office.



I fink global warming is a mith.



Insurances are an unadulterated source of hilarity.
I have one on my house that goes to the length of specifying in small clauses that it doesn't cover:
- damages caused by "angry mobs", though they don't specify about pitchforks and torches
- damages caused by "rioters taking possession of it as an operation base"
and best of all
- damages caused by "self-made devices for the acceleration of subatomic particles"
- damages caused by "self-made devices for the fission of the nucleus of atoms"

Darn, there goes my hobby project for an H-bomb in the attic...

well, you should be doing it in the basement anyways. The concrete will help keep the radiation from spreading in the neighborhood

 Is it a BMW?



Okay, not too bad then kowenicki. At least it isn't some crappy American sedan.



I already know most American cars suck. That is why I own a Honda.  Always liked Viper GTS-R even though they are unreliable.  Old Shelby's are pretty tight also.  American muscle cars from 60-70s are pretty bad ass looking.



Microsoft paid God to rain giant hail storms on the Cell plant. No wonder why they haven't had enough money to develop new games and had to cut loose some developers.

Edit: Microsoft destroys Sony in 2009... confirmed.
