The Wiz was ahead of his time. To see the logical progress of his genius, type ‘christmas lights - trans siberian orchestra’ into your search engine. Here’s one example:
There’s a bunch of others, but the top one is the one I saw when it was first posted. If you put Trans Siberian Orchestra Christmas Lights in the YouTube search box, you’ll get LOTS of light displays - and some to other songs besides Wizards, as well…
“Chief Desoto must have missed the memo. Global warming LEADS TO the next ice age for us.”
That’s a rather dumb statement! In ANY cyclical system, and the earth’s climate is CERTAINLY a cyclical system, ANYTHING that happened before ALWAYS leads to something opposite that happens after. It’s been going on this way for thousands of millions of years – LONG before man ever evolved!
The earth’s climate had been warmer for LITERALLY several hundred million years before the climate turned colder in this string of ice ages that occurred a couple million years ago, just as man evolved. It is only natural that it will turn warmer again when this string of ice ages that we are more or less involved in (off and on – coming and going over a few million years) will finally completely end at some time in the future. ( It MAY be ending now, OR it MAY not – only a charlatan ( like Gore – one of the bigger charlatans we have ever been cursed with! ) would try to tell you that it WAS or WASN’T happening right now! )
To assume that the climate will ALWAYS be, or SHOULD even be, the same is it is now forever is absolutely absurd!! It never has been, and it never will be!
freeholder1, stopping global warming will bring on the next ice age, as Niven, Pournelle, and Flynn predicted in Fallen Angels. There’s also a praise of styrofoam in the book.

Oh, a followup - the one from ‘Frisco has a nice left to right chronology - the manger, the donkey, the camel, the reindeer.
