Thanks for the reply. I said NOAA fudges data. I provided proof. You allude that 1988 is outdated. Tell it to NOAA. That is the method NOAA uses to fudge data. It's a peer-reviewed article from the Journal of Climate.

I won't claim fraud, but I am downright skeptical when someone recreates the past using "statistical methods". I am very skeptical of it, and that is my opinion. Why am I skeptical? If someone can use "statistical methods" to interpolate sparse regions from 250 years ago or even from the 1930's, e.g. Pacific Ocean, Indian Ocean, whole damn Arctic, Siberia, etc., then these "methods" must properly recreate the structure and variability of teleconnection patterns using very sparse data. I doubt it, since these low-frequency patterns don't follow any kind of "statistical" distribution. Not many have a grasp on these patterns, especially considering no one can properly forecast changes in these patterns or interaction among the patterns. It's very non-linear.

Here's my favorite part of the article. "The careful analysis by our team is laid out in five scientific papers now online at BerkeleyEarth.org. That site also shows our chart of temperature from 1753 to the present, with its clear fingerprint of volcanoes and carbon dioxide, but containing no component that matches solar activity." Well shit, I guess the sun has got nothing to do with it!
