In summary, you had no idea whatsoever that extensive scientific studies have been made of plants and thier time of flowering with regard to the climate. Nor could you even be bothered to look.

At the same time, you let your imagination run wild and predict the people who take the time and trouble to study these things could be jiggering with the figures.

All this a hundred years before global warming was even thought about or imagined.

I find your ideas implausible.

Strawman arguments are a sign of weakness.

I agree.

Then you should stop making broad statements about AGW skeptics being paid by tobacco companies.

Actually that's an ad-hominem argument not a strawman argument.
