". . . records dating back to 1850"


Glad to see they've figured out the earth's thermal patterns in 157 years!!

Shhhhhhhh!!!! You’re giving up the game! That little fact was tucked into the article in such a way that only a careful reader like yourself would glom onto the fact that the baseline is only 1850. Hence the headline “Warmest Years on Record” subliminally becomes “Warmest Years in Earth’s History” to the casual reader.
