Your credit card works for it too, huh? Say, being paid up member of things with science in the name, maybe you can explain the scientific reasons for changing historic tempeerature records: The True Cause Of Global Warming It's Mann-made ... and Hansen-made. The USSR had nothing on NASA GISS when it comes to historical revisionism. Posted on October 6, 2011 by Steven Goddard Prior to the year 2000, Hansen showed US temperatures cooling since the 1930s. This obviously wasn’t going to bring funding in, so the temperature record was altered to create a hockey stick. Hansen wrote this in 1999 Empirical evidence does not lend much support to the notion that climate is headed precipitately toward more extreme heat and drought. The drought of 1999 covered a smaller area than the 1988 drought, when the Mississippi almost dried up. And 1988 was a temporary inconvenience as compared with repeated droughts during the 1930s “Dust Bowl” that caused an exodus from the prairies, as chronicled in Steinbeck’sGrapes of Wrath. How can the absence of clear climate change in the United States be reconciled with continued reports of record global temperature? Part of the “answer” is that U.S. climate has been following a different course than global climate, at least so far. Figure 1 compares the temperature history in the U.S. and the world for the past 120 years. The U.S. has warmed during the past century, but the warming hardly exceeds year-to-year variability. Indeed, in the U.S. the warmest decade was the 1930s and the warmest year was 1934. http://www.giss.nasa.gov/research/briefs/hansen_07/%3C/u%3E%3C/a%3E[/url] real-science.com
