Have a look at this chart. It tells you pretty much all you need to know about the much-anticipated scoop by Anthony Watts of Watts Up With That?
What it means, in a nutshell, is that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) the US government body in charge of America's temperature record, has systematically exaggerated the extent of late 20th century global warming. In fact, it has doubled it.

Thanks Para-Ord.45.

Thanks.
LOL! Funny column!
Gooberment funny business ping.
Good one A.A.C.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
PJM Interconnection, the company that operates the electric grid for 13 states (Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia) held its 2015 capacity auction. These are the first real, market prices that take Obamas most recent anti-coal regulations into account, and they prove that he is keeping his 2008 campaign promise to make electricity prices necessarily skyrocket.The market-clearing price for new 2015 capacity almost all natural gas was $136 per megawatt. Thats eight times higher than the price for 2012, which was just $16 per megawatt. In the mid-Atlantic area covering New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and DC the new price is $167 per megawatt. For the northern Ohio territory served by FirstEnergy, the price is a shocking $357 per megawatt.
These are not computer models or projections or estimates. These are the actual prices that electric distributors have agreed to pay for new capacity. The costs will be passed on to consumers at the retail level.
Extremely revealing graphic that shows how the result of the current methods of “homogenization” skew temperatures reported by the alarmists.
No one else has commented on this? I guess the average American won’t get it until they get their electric bills in 2015. By then it will be too late.
Lol, most of the few FReepers who have a clue were the ones who were following the California power crisis of 2003. I promise you: this whole thing is largely Bryson's doing, and he's been preparing for it for over forty years. Salazar is just a bag man by comparison.
I wrote a piece about this back then that puts this into the larger context in which it belongs.
