Actually, the average temperatures DECREASED in the middle of the century .... from the mid-30's through the early 80's temperatures went DOWN.

Only in the last 20 years have they risen - and they've risen by less 1/4 of what these "programs" predict for the ACTUAL increase in CO2 concentration..

Recent models have successfully duplicated this trend.

This is outdated information and I don't know what you're basing it on. Improved models more closely duplicate the observed temperature increase.
