McIntyre and McKitrick’s only failure was in not convincing Nature that the paper was important enough to publish.this bombshell
Nature and none of the referee's saw the importance of "this bombshell"?

Well, shouldn't it be easy enough to take their data and plot it to a correctly calibrated graph?
Oh, and as for medieval global warming, they used to be able to grow grapes in large quantites in England, and the Vikings lived in Greenland...

global warming in medieval times?
they should read the Viking Sagas -
Eric the Red settled in Greenland 1,000 year ago because it was warm enough to be hospitable, indeed, he loved it there - lived there for decades, had a community there. His son, Leif, (Ericsson) lived there too, even tho' he had sailed down and explored Nova Scotia, Cape Cod, up the Hudson, etc. But after about 30 years of living in Greenland, the weather started turning too cold - and eventually, the community was abandoned. Then again, by the eraly 1600's, the winters in New Englnad were warmer than they are now...if one reads the letters and writings of the time. (Not that they were easy to deal with, what with hastily built homes and no stoves, no cars with heaters, etc.) But why mess with something that doesn't promote a pre-set agenda, huh?

A big bump for a wonderful article find.
The 'corrected' data results that have been previously published still haven't made it through the central filter of science, but that such a correction had to be made, in addition to rather well reasoned disputing of those results (and underlying data, method, and even motives) leads me to believe that this cause will continue to be taken up by more and more folks.

And so it is reported for the trillionth time that the "Egyptian Variable" hypothesis is true ~ that is, that you can come up with a number which when multiplied against the answer will give you the answer you wish.

Read this rather quickly - but did not even see the word 'ozone'. . .a few years ago; this would not be possible. (Yes, the ozone hole is closing. . .so it is no longer part of the 'dialogue')and now this!
As indicated, this does not preclude 'global changes'; warming. . .just our presence impacting these changes. Greenies will not be happy! What will Ralph Nader say? Algore???
I can only say. . .'what goes around...comes around'; sooner; or later.

We are coming out of an ice age. We are SUPPOSED to be warming up, for crying out loud!

If, on the other hand, we reject the hockey stick, and recognize that natural fluctuations can be large, then we will not be misled by a few years of random cooling. ...or misled by a few years of random warming.

The "Global Warming Crisis" is a fraud. The Earth is very near a 65 million year ambient temperature low!

If you are concerned about global warming (as I am) and think that human-created carbon dioxide may contribute (as I do), then you still should agree that we are much better off having broken the hockey stick. Sad that the author did not change viewpoints, as a major part of the global warming model bites the dust. I would have thought the (as I do) would be changed to (as I now must question).
