\"barbarablevins03\"Do You Think The Weather Reports Are always Accurate ?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It’s late fall and the Indians on a remote reservation in South Dakota asked their new chief if the coming winter was going to\u00a0 be cold\u00a0 or mild. Since he was a chief in a modern society, he had never\u00a0 been taught the old secrets. When he looked at the sky, he couldn’t\u00a0 tell what the winter was going to be like.
\nNevertheless, to be on the safe side, he told his tribe\u00a0 that the winter was indeed going to be cold and that the members of\u00a0 the village should collect firewood to be prepared.
\nBut, being a practical leader, after several days, he\u00a0 got an idea. He went to the phone booth, called the National Weather\u00a0 Service and asked, ‘Is the coming winter going to be cold?’\u00a0 ‘It looks like this winter is going to be quite cold,’\u00a0 the meteorologist at the weather service responded. So the chief went back to his people and told them to \u00a0collect even more firewood in order to be prepared.
\nA week later, he called the National Weather Service\u00a0 again. ‘Does it still look like it is going to be a very cold winter?’\u00a0 ‘Yes,’ the man at National Weather Service again\u00a0 replied, ‘it’s going to be a very cold winter.’ The chief again went back to his people and ordered them\u00a0 to collect every scrap of firewood they could find.
\nTwo weeks later, the chief called the National Weather\u00a0 Service again. ‘Are you absolutely sure that the winter is going to be\u00a0 very cold?’\u00a0 ‘Absolutely,’ the man replied.\u00a0 ‘It’s looking more and\u00a0 more like it is going to be one of the coldest winters we’ve ever\u00a0 seen.’
\n‘How can you be so sure?’ the chief asked.
\nThe weatherman replied, ‘The Indians are collecting a heck of a lot of firewood’
