Exactly. Cherry-picking data to bolster your agenda isn't science.

I have some friends in the Ukraine. They couldn't be happier that they're not freezing to death in January. Is there a downside to this?

Yeah, averages are average. What goes up, must come down.

Actually, we do, cause we'd get Februarys like this even if January wasn't warm. It was nice to have winter only be 5 weeks long insted of 5 months long.

And scientists wonder why people don't trust them.

And it keeps on coming.

BS! I've already worn long pants for over 2 months and I can't remember a past year that i've ever worn long pants more than 5 weeks at the most.

Recall that the explosion in funding for embryonic stem-cell research came as a result of the fraudulent Korean research and after that research was known to be a fraud.

Here's the liberal version:

1 is prime
3 is prime
5 is prime
7 is prime
9 is prime
11 is prime
13 is prime
15 is prime
17 is prime
19 is prime

All odd numbers are prime!

Cheers!

Meteorologists aren't blaming the warmer January on global warming alone, but they said the higher temperature was consistent with climate change.

Everything's conistent with "climate change" hypotheses, that's what makes them so wonderful.

Not anti-science, anti-BS.

30 years ago, Newsweek published an article on the dangers of global cooling. Before then, it was the "population bomb" which was going to overpopulate the earth by the 1980s.

Promulgating these scares is an effort to attract grant funding and spread a political agenda. It isn't science.

It's well to remember what the great journalist H.L. Mencken said: ""The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."
