I'll add:

The pro-AGW scientists need to show how 150 years is a meaningful sample on which to base their conclusions.

Since the catchphrase of the day is "climate change", they need to show that the current conditions are any different that historical conditions. In other words, if they are asserting that climate change is not only bad, but it is out of the norm, they need to show that there was ever a period where there wasn't any climate change.

My position is that whatever conditions we are seeing today are well within normal cyclical variations. When you put that together with where we are in the glacial/inter-glacial cycle, were there may be climate change and there may be global warming, it is not unusual or something that should be unexpected.
