I understand why it is a stupid expectation. At this time there is no know way to fill in data that can create what happened in the past. All the data is guesses upon guesses. But we do know that the increase of 1 degree over the last century where 50% of the increase is before any real increase in CO2 and 50% is after the increase currently attributed as the man made CO2 increases # Less confidence can be placed in large-scale surface temperature reconstructions for the period from A.D. 900 to 1600. Presently available proxy evidence indicates that temperatures at many, but not all, individual locations were higher during the past 25 years than during any period of comparable length since A.D. 900. The uncertainties associated with reconstructing hemispheric mean or global mean temperatures from these data increase substantially backward in time through this period and are not yet fully quantified. Strictly speaking one can thus double or tenfold existing error bars as we go back in time. So you are clueless about science, math, statistics and engineering, it is good you post with an anonymous handle.
