Okay, I don't really keep up with the Climate Change Hoax; but, it was my understanding that the problem with the "spike" chart was that they had taken an entire era of Climate History out in order to get the spike. They took out the "Little Ice Age" from the data; and, then they got the spike they wanted, or to put it more bluntly, they got the propaganda that they wanted. I noticed that the spike chart kind of disappeared after that.
Did someone refute the allegation of removal of the data from The Little Ice Age?
