Somebody's got to keep an eye on the living lie known as Anthony Watts. It was nice of her to volunteer.

Nonsense with Illinois USHCN adjustments Zeke has been discussing USHCN adjustments and anomalies at Lucia's blog, specifically referring to Steve Goddard's continuing series of posts. SG has continued to get it wrong. moyhu.blogspot.com = How not to calculate temperature5 June, 2014 (14:04) \| Data Comparisons Written by: Zeke The blogger Steven Goddard has been on a tear recently, castigating NCDC for making up “97% of warming since 1990? by infilling missing data with “fake data”. The reality is much more mundane, and the dramatic findings are nothing other than an artifact of Goddard’s flawed methodology. Lets look at what’s actually going on in more detail. rankexploits.com a comment Anthony Watts (Comment #130003) June 6th, 2014 at 8:00 am I took Goddard to task over this as well in a private email, saying he was very wrong and needed to do better. I also pointed out to him that his initial claim was wronger than wrong, as he was claiming that 40% of USCHN STATIONS were missing. Predictably, he swept that under the rug, and then proceeded to tell me in email that I don’t know what I’m talking about. Fortunately I saved screen caps from his original post and the edit he made afterwards. See: Before: http://wattsupwiththat.files.w.....before.png After: http://wattsupwiththat.files.w....._after.png Note the change in wording in the highlighted last sentence. In case you didn’t know, “Steve Goddard” is a made up name. Supposedly at Heartland ICCC9 he’s going to “out” himself and start using his real name. That should be interesting to watch, I won’t be anywhere near that moment of his. This, combined with his inability to openly admit to and correct mistakes, is why I booted him from WUWT some years ago, after he refused to admit that his claim about CO2 freezing on the surface of Antarctica couldn’t be possible due to partial pressure of CO2. http://wattsupwiththat.com/200.....a-at-113f/ And then when we had an experiment done, he still wouldn’t admit to it. http://wattsupwiththat.com/200.....-possible/ And when I pointed out his recent stubborness over the USHCN issues was just like that…he posts this: http://stevengoddard.wordpress.....reeze-co2/ He’s hopelessly stubborn, worse than Mann at being able to admit mistakes IMHO. So, I’m off on vacation for a couple of weeks starting today, posting at WUWT will be light. Maybe I’ll pick up this story again when I return. =
