I do sympathize, but you just can't hold back Mother Nature. The Earth has been covered in ice, twice, IIRC. Things change. It may suck, but it isn't a new concept. Goodness, the entire North American continent, let alone Texas, wasn't always here. Totally futile to try to keep everything exactly the same forever, when our concept of forever is a grain of sand on the beach.
