And based on physical proximity you extend something observed on one to the other. Each of the Hawaiian Islands is in close proximity to the other islands. Do they have the same climate?
Do you know how far one has to go in Death Valley California to move from a summer climate of 90 degrees Farenheit to snow?

I'll answer the last question for you ... I've personally thrown snowballs into Death Valley.

You asked in another thread if I was willing to discuss science ... I am. Are you willing to do the same? "stones throw away" isn't science. And painting the target after shooting the arrow is not science either.
