Congressman Hank Johnson, who represents most of Brookhaven, will be holding a town hall meeting on health care reform legislation on Monday, August 10, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. at the Cole Auditorium on the Clarkston Campus of Georgia Perimeter College. If you have the time, I hope you will make the short trip around I-285 to express your views on this important issue. One of my constituents brought up a good point about why this meeting is important: “If you write Congressman Johnson a letter or an e-mail, it’s highly unlikely he’ll see it. This is an opportunity where...

This is a vanity request. I have a nephew who is arguing with his teacher and other students that man-made global warming is not an issue. I would ask if there is any climate skeptic experts who would be willing to give at talk in the Burlington Vermont area to students and teachers? Please let me know.

Did Napoleon Use Hansen's Temperature Data? by Steve McIntyre on November 10th, 2008 It's colder in Russia in October than in September, as Napoleon found out to his cost in 1812. Sitting in the ashes of a ruined city without having received the Russian capitulation, and facing a Russian maneuver forcing him out of Moscow, Napoleon started his long retreat by the middle of October. Flash forward almost 200 years later. NASA has just reported record warmth in October throughout Russia, with many sites experiencing similar temperatures in October as in September - perhaps the sort of situation that Napoleon...

The global warming organizer of an event at Wilkes U has stated the local area has been hurt by global warming. Please Freep this and ask them where is their proof they have been harmed?

Regular readers will recall that not long ago I asked the climate community research community to suggest what climate observations might be observed on decadal time scales that might be inconsistent with predictions from models. While Real Climate has decided to take a pass on this question other scientists and interested observers have taken up the challenge, no doubt with interest added by the recent cooling in the primary datasets of global temperature.

GULFPORT, Miss. -- A federal judge on Aug. 30 rejected Mississippi residents' claims that coal, oil and chemical companies were liable for greenhouse gas emissions, which allegedly led to an increase in powerful hurricanes in the region, including Hurricane Katrina (Ned Comer, et al. v. Murphy Oil USA Inc., et al., No. 05-CV-436LG, S.D. Miss., Southern Div.). From Mealey's Pollution Liability Report

Hansen Frees the Code By Steve McIntyre Hansen has just released what is said to be the source code for their temperature analysis. The release was announced in a shall-we-say ungracious email to his email distribution list and a link is now present at the NASA webpage. Hansen says resentfully that they would have liked a “week or two” to make a “simplified version” of the program and that it is this version that “people interested in science” will want, as opposed to the version that actually generated their results.

Just wondering what the decision is on the Hillary video?

Steve McIntyre says: September 4th, 2007 at 6:08 pm I’ve posted an update to the post, setting out what I believe to be the most plausible answers. Thanks to everyone who participated and particularly to John Goetz for framing the problem and then solving the calculation of the delta. The next puzzle, as John G articulated, is to figure out how Hansen calculated seasonal and annual averages when there is missing data. However, even without solving this puzzle, the present evidence is sufficient to establish that Hansen’s method of combining different scribal versions is erroneous and has corrupted his entire...

Quantifying the Hansen Y2K Error By Steve McIntyre I observed recently that Hansen’s GISS series contains an apparent error in which Hansen switched the source of GISS raw from USHCN adjusted to USHCN raw for all values January 2000 and later. For Detroit Lakes MN, this introduced an error of 0.8 deg C. I’ve collated GISS raw minus USHCN adjusted for all USHCN sites (using the data scraped from the GISS site, for which I was most criticized in Rabett-world). Figure 1 below shows a histogram of the January 2000 step for the 1221 stations (calculated here as the difference...

Freepers please help. This is one of my first posts. I am sorry if I don't do this right! I just watched Battlestar Galactica tonight. I was just sickened by the program tonight where the resistance fighters were wearing suicide belts, blowing themselves up to fight the "evil silons". This is blatant "moral equivalance" situation where Sci Fi viewers were subjected to the "war on terror" equivalance of the "war on Silons" where they try to equate the terrorists to fictional characters on Sci. If this continues, I will not watch Sci Fi channel anymore. Freepers please help ssend a...
