John Coleman, founder of the Weather Channel, in an hour-long television documentary titled “Global Warming: The Other Side,” presents evidence that our National Climatic Data Center [2] has been manipulating weather data just as the now disgraced and under investigation British University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit. The NCDC is a division of the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Its manipulated climate data is used by the Goddard Institute of Space Studies, which is a division of the National Aeronautical and Space Administration. John Coleman’s blockbuster five-part series can be seen here [3].
The Coleman documentary presents research by computer expert E. Michael Smith and Certified Consulting Meteorologist Joseph D’Aleo. During the 1960s and into the 1980s, the number of stations used for calculating global surface temperatures was about 6,000. By 1990, the number of stations dropped rapidly to about 1,500. Most of the stations lost were in the colder regions of the Earth. Not adjusting for their lost made temperatures appear to be higher than was in fact the case. According to Science & Environmental Policy Project, Russia reported that CRU was ignoring data from colder regions of Russia, even though these stations were still reporting data. That means data loss was not simply the result of station closings but deliberate decisions by CRU to ignore them in order to hype their global warming claims. D’Aleo and Smith report that our NCDC engaged in similar deceptive activity where they have dropped stations, particularly in colder climates, higher elevations or closer to the polar regions. Temperatures are now simply projected for these colder stations from other stations, usually in warmer climates.
Mounting evidence of scientific fraud might make little difference in terms of the response to manmade global warming hysteria. Why? Vested [2] economic and political interests have emerged where trillions of dollars and social control are at stake.
Therefore, many people who recognize the scientific fraud underlying global warming claims are likely to defend it anyway. Automobile companies have invested billions in research and investment [2] in producing “green cars.” General Electric and Phillips have spent millions lobbying Congress to outlaw incandescent bulbs so that they can force us to buy costly compact fluorescent light bulbs (CFL). Farmers and ethanol manufacturers have gotten Congress to enact laws mandating greater use of their product, not to mention massive subsidies. Thousands of major corporations around the world have taken steps to reduce carbon emissions including giants like IBM, Nike, Coca-Cola and BP, the oil giant. Companies like Google, Yahoo and Dell have vowed to become “carbon neutral.”
Then there’s Chicago Climate Futures Exchange that plans to trade in billions of dollars of greenhouse gas emission allowances. Corporate America and labor unions, as well as their international counterparts have a huge multi-trillion dollar financial [2] stake in the perpetuation of the global warming fraud. Federal, state and local agencies have spent billions of dollars and created millions of jobs to deal with one aspect or another of global warming.
It’s deeper than just money. Schoolteachers have created polar-bear-dying lectures to frighten and indoctrinate our children when in fact there are more polar bears now than in 1950. They’ve taught children about melting glaciers. Just recently, the International Panel on Climate Change was forced to admit that their Himalayan glacier-melting fraud was done to “impact policy makers and politicians and encourage them to take some concrete action.”
What would all the beneficiaries of the global warming hype do if it becomes widely known and accepted that mankind’s activities have very little to do with the Earth’s temperature? I don’t know but a lot of people would feel and look like idiots. But I bet that even if the permafrost returned as far south as New Jersey, as it once did, the warmers and their congressional stooges would still call for measures to fight global warming [2].

Sambody git dis guy sum tap shoos.
(Black, by popular demand!)
Here’s an interview about the hoax of rising sea levels that everyone should read. It’s not really technical, an easy read. It’s amazingly damning to the warmists!
Here’s a great article/interview that totally busts the “rising sea level” bs;

Thus my tag line and it will ring true and faithful without deceit.

Some noteworthy articles about politics, foreign or military affairs, IMHO, FReepmail me if you want on or off my list.
This is quite possibly Th clearest and most succinct article that I have read on this subject. Dr Williams is a national treasure.
Who dat?
Anyone remember when Dr. Williams challenged (I believe it was Henry Waxman) to meet him on the steps of the capitol and just try to take his cigarettes away from him?
Essentially he said Waxman wasn’t man enough. Boom, boom out go the lights. Courtesy of Dr. Walter Williams!
A. Spend their money installing an extensive grid of modern temperature stations -- solar powered and linked to the net via satellite telemetry -- like this stream gaging station?
OR
B. Spend our tax money discarding and/or disregarding the information from hundreds of the few stations we already have in place?
~~~~~~~~~
If you honestly want to understand global climate, the answer is obvious.
If you want to pull off a massive leftist scam -- well, that answer is obvious, too.

NOAA!! NASA!!
Thanks for that link. Downloaded, and sent onward.
I think the real problem is that the actual measured record began with maybe a dozen thermometers in each region being measured and grew to hundreds in some and much less in others.
We may well have all the old ones and most of the middle ones and certainly all the current ones.
The raw data is not the data used for the official anomaly maps we now see.
What was done was to go over all the areas of the old data and pick out stations they could claim were still represented in the current data and then throw away all the ones that read lower than what was necessary to make their point.
After all, the planet is huge — where would one place a single thermometer to tell if it had a fever?
“rising sea level” link reference mark and thread bumpity bump.
Geaux Saints!
Time to short the liars... truth is coming out.
