Global Warming? Oh, REALLY!
Seems that somebody is cooking the books on the temperature data.
Adjusting USHCN History By Steve McIntyre lays it out.
So, who is lying and why are they lying? Well, I think it is clear that somebody, as Mr. McIntyre notes, has a reason to "adjust" the figures. What could that reason be? Could it be that somebody has an agenda? Let's accept that. So what is the agenda? To scare us into giving them control perhaps? So, what would they want to control? Maybe our pocketbooks/wallets? Just maybe?
For those of you who think scientists don't lie just let me remind you of "cold fusion" and "South Korean human cloning" among other things. No I won't mention global cooling which was supposed to be the percursor of the next ice age (also caused by humans) in the 1970s. Interestingly the same politicos touting the global warming idiots were touting the global cooling idiots 30 years ago. Not that there is any connection, of course.
Let's get over it folks. The sun warms and cools and thus we warm and cool and in doing so weather patterns change a bit and life goes on. I hope you'll join me in urging the snake oil salesmen and women to take their scams elsewhere.
