What is it with you scientists? Now I'm supposed to believe that all this global warming is just going to make things all the colder in Chicago? I was prepared to support global warming on the theory that, notwithstanding all the extinction, flooding of tropical lowlands, etc., I would not have to freeze my ass off every winter. Now evidently that's not the case. No wonder the good people of Georgia are showing some justifiable skepticism about evolution.
Yeah, it's like that episode of The Simpsons with the giant meteorite. After Springfield escapes becoming a huge smoldering crater, Moe (or someone Moelike) cries, "Let's burn down the observatory so this'll never happen again!"

So how exactly is "wind chill" misleading? I don't feel any warmer when it's windy.
