You tried to degrade the thread and I didn't let you.

My Mom was a teenager in the 30's. She says 2014 was a mild year. Nothing like the 30's. They used to sleep on the front porch at night, it was still hot, but too hot to be in the house. Yet Another Clueless Climate Scientist Posted on January 4, 2015 by stevengoddard Where do they find these people at? On Dec. 26, Rolf Westgard made a demonstrably false statement in the St. Cloud Times/SCTimes.com about climate change. He stated, “The earth is overall warm in 2014, perhaps equaling 1998 and the mid-1930s as among the warmest years of the 21st century.” Aside from the fact that 1998 and the 1930s were in the 20th century, his comments about the 1930s are false. The 1930s were warm in the United States, but they were cool globally. I am a climate scientist. I was in China at the time of the U.S.-China announcement. I work on global temperature studies. When people make these types of false statements in the press, it is my professional obligation to submit a correction. Let’s debate solutions on climate change but let’s at least start with facts, not fantasy. Dr. John Abraham is a climate scientist at the University of St. Thomas.

The great pause - now 18 years, 3 months ........... The Great Pause is a growing embarrassment to those who had told us with “substantial confidence” that the science was settled and the debate over. Nature had other ideas. Though approaching 70 mutually incompatible and more or less implausible excuses for the Pause are appearing in nervous reviewed journals and among proselytizing scientists, the possibility that the Pause is occurring because the computer models are simply wrong about the sensitivity of temperature to manmade greenhouse gases can no longer be dismissed, and is demonstrated in a major peer-reviewed paper published this month in the Orient’s leading science journal. ................ http://wattsupwiththat.com/2015/01/03/the-great-pause-lengthens-again/
