He was stoned when he wrote that, so it doesn't count

TC..
reread it again..

the author is discussing..'cooling'..during
the ..hottest decade...
see below

“To talk about global cooling at the end of the hottest decade the planet has experienced in many thousands of years ...
is ridiculous."

Software engineer (and former machinist mate in the US Navy) Timothy Chase put together a spreadsheet using the data from NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (click here). In NASA’s dataset, the 12-month running average temperature record was actually just barely set in March — and then easily set in April.

Of course, there never was any global cooling — see Must-read AP story: Statisticians reject global cooling; Caldeira — “To talk about global cooling at the end of the hottest decade the planet has experienced in many thousands of years is ridiculous.”

In fact, the new 12-month record far outpaced the pre-2010 record of 0.62°C that was set in … 2007

Are you nuts topcat. That post doesn't say anthing about my sayign there has never being a cold spell. It talks about anotehr record wamr year recetnly.

Everyone on earth knows we had massive glaciers coming half way down the Aemrican continent 10,000 years ago. that is a friggen given.

We are all talking about the recent past and how quickly things are changing.

Good lord-lol.

koan....for someone who wants to be considered an intellectual, you sure are dense.

You posted that "there never was any global cooling." I reminded you about the Ice Age. You then promptly accuse me of being a "global warming denyer."

I never posted that. Show me the post."
