The hockey stick refers to the reent rate of increase and IF it continues it will be a problem.

This is incorrect. The Hockey Stick is a propaganda device created by Michael Mann mixing real, measured data with proxy data and some bogus data.

Do a keyword search on Mannmade. The Hockey Stick has been totally discredited.

AG, do you have anything worked up, reguarding Mann?

I concede that point - using NASA data, a hockey stick is not the shape I would say describes the data.

For one thing, it doesn't account for the flat spot between 1945 and 1976 with rising temps before and after.
