In college they taught us that were are several thousand years overdue  
for an Ice Age anyway.

A lot of people, even those in the class, have no idea what that means.

It's not like we'll ride it out for a few years, it will last 10K  
years or so.

It *WILL* happen eventually, at least if the the scientists that talk  
about it are correct anyway.

Kind of a big impact on civilization if it does happen.
