Have a great weekend, y’all — and God bless.

excellant 2 cents!
well done
Though you'll have to admit that the man-made global warming hysteria is a target rich environment.
Al Gore's grip on the minds of the easily lead hasn't resulted in mass casualties here, yet....
For what it is worth, the website is climateaudit.org, not "climateaudit.com".
First, the “hockey stick” chart was wrong; now the NASA temps are wrong. This makes Gore’s movie wrong. Do you think he will revise his movie?
He’s been wrong since he was born-why stop now?
The cult of Glooball Worming must be defended at all costs, the mediots will see to it.
“The........uh.........former Senator from Tennessee would like to revise and extend his remarks...........”
I love it!
It's nice to know there was something to all of that Y2K stuff.
Little did we know it would backfire on the libs.
Very enjoyable!
Nice read, JH. Thanks for all you do.
When I think of our blue marble maintaining a record of daily twirls, and annual orbits around an object 93 million miles away, and containing a balance that makes as many winds blow one way as the other, and the oceans swirl around the surface in a repeatable flow, and the atmosphereic gases not flying off into outer space, I cannot comprehend how mere humans can become a force stronger than all of the above.
Human behavior can ruin habitat, but not the planet.
Great article, as always.
Environmental lawyers can STILL hire an expert witness who will rely on the old data.
Environmental DEFENSE lawyers need to bone up on this in order to shoot down plaintiff’s expert witnesses.
I demand to see pictures.
Great article John.
There’s even more...there is evidence that NASA is apply data corrections to measurements from GOOD temperature recording stations. Yet they won’t release their algorithms.
Thank you so very much for the excellent wrap-up!
"The U.S. has warmed during the past century, but the warming hardly exceeds year-to-year variability. Indeed, in the U.S. the warmest decade was the 1930s and the warmest year was 1934." (written in 1999 by James Hansen, NASA GISS)
Excerpt: "The U.S. annual (January-December) mean temperature is slightly warmer in 1934 than in 1998 in the GISS analysis (Plate 6). This contrasts with the USHCN data, which has 1998 as the warmest year in the century. In both cases the difference between 1934 and 1998 mean temperatures is a few hundredths of a degree. ... The main reason that 1998 is relatively cooler in the GISS analysis [compared to USHCN] is its larger adjustment for urban warming. In comparing temperatures of years separated by 60 or 70 years the uncertainties in various adjustments (urban warming, station history adjustments, etc.) lead to an uncertainty of at least 0.1°C. Thus it is not possible to declare a record U.S. temperature with confidence until a result is obtained that exceeds the temperature of 1934 by more than 0.1°C."
Ms. Amanda Carpenter writes:
"Under NASA's revised figures, the years 2000, 2002, 2003, and 2004 are further down the list of 'warmest years' than 1900. [For the United States, Amanda.] According to renowned climatologist Al Gore, it should be the other way around. He and his pals had insisted 9 on the top 10 were from the last 12 years [And they still are, Amanda, because this statement is about GLOBAL temperatures, not the United States temperatures.] -- especially given the massive CO2 emissions during this period from the fleet of jets and gas hogs Gore uses to preach about the evils of jets and gas hogs. In light of the new numbers, Gore's new warning: Sign Kyoto, or the coming years will be hotter than 1934!"
Quoting myself from yesterday in another thread:
"It appears to me that there is still a LOT (I mean a LOT, I mean a TREMENDOUS AMOUNT, I mean a MAJOR, SIGNIFICANT, LARGE, STUPENDOUS, ASTONOMAZING, STUPEFYING, I-WOULDN'T-BELIEVE-PEOPLE-COULD-BE-SO-DUMB-UNLESS-I-WITNESSED-IT-MYSELF) of confusion between the difference of the word "GLOBAL", and the terms "United States" or "U.S."
and Ms. Carpenter is yet another example.
