The Current State Of Global Warming

oops, Globull Warming Suffers Severe Fact Shifting
Now isn't this cute, the stated US temperatures have been revised, downwards, and the revision makes most of the foundation arguments used for globull warming inoperative. Michelle Malkin has the full wrap up, Rush Limbaugh on his radio show on Thursday 8/9/07 started the avalanche which pushed this over the cliff.
I wonder, did Hansen and crew think they could just revise the data and no one would notice, or did they have to make the data fit the desired record in the first place. It could be just an error, but then when you add in the reluctance to give out the source code for the temperature collection and analysis, you have to wonder. I hate riddles.
This effort is the result of Steve McIntyre, who now has two major contributions in the search for the truth.
Bottom Line
According to the new data published today by NASA, 1998 is no longer the hottest year ever. 1934 is. Four of the top 10 years of US CONUS high temperature deviations are now from the 1930s: 1934, 1931, 1938 and 1939, while only 3 of the top 10 are from the last 10 years (1998, 2006, 1999). Several years (2000, 2002, 2003, 2004) fell well down the leaderboard, behind even 1900.
James Hansen, who shot to fame when he accused the administration of trying to censor his views on climate change, publicly claimed the Bush administration was putting political pressure on him. Hansen also refused to provide Steve McIntyre, or anyone else, with the algorithm used to generate graph data, so Steve McIntyre and his volunteers reverse-engineered it. The result appeared to be a Y2K bug in the handling of the raw data, but as you look at the revised data, you would also see that the temperatures long before Y2K were also changed.
The effect on the US global warming propaganda machine could be huge. Then again, alot depends on what Rush Limbaugh does tomorrow, you don't really think the drive by media will cover this story in a facutal way do you?
If all this doesn't make you go hmmm, you need more caffine.

This effort is the result of Steve McIntyre, who now has two major contributions in the search for the truth.
1) Proving the Mann "hockey stick" used in all Gore's movie, An Inconvenient Truth, was based on unsupportable data and methods.
2) Proving how yearly temperature anomalies for the USA are based on data that had been processed incorrectly.

Agricultural Fires And Global Warming
On May 13, 2007, the MODIS on NASA’s Aqua satellite captured an image of fires in Honduras and Nicaragua, along with smoke-filled skies over the Pacific Ocean. Places where MODIS detected active fire are marked in red.Click image for more detailed image.
The last few weeks the fires in Florida, naturally caused by lightening, showed the residents of the state how bad fire is for the atmosphere. Choking smoke blanketed the state, until this week, when it has rained nearly every afternoon so finally today the smoke is mostly gone, the air is mostly clear.
Who did it, well it sure wasn't all powerful man, the fire crews were doing yeoman's duty, but the best they could do was contain the fires, somewhat. Not put them out. They built roads around the fires and hoped they would burn everything inside the roads and eventually go out for lack of more fuel. Then came the rain.
So along comes the pictures at the top of the page. The majority of the fires shown are very likely man caused, brush clearing, land clearing, and agricultural waste burning. The CO2 released by this fires is enormous, the ash, the soot, yet no one complains about the damage to the atmosphere. Why?
The answer is very simple, it's not about globull warming, it's about destroying the U.S. economy. If it were about globull warming, then these fires would take center stage. Most third world countries do the same thing, set their country on fire, mostly for agricultural reasons, as the fires spread, the whole country is set ablaze by embers blowing in the wind.
Next time you hear about how bad your car is, and how burning fossil fuels are for the atmosphere, think about this and the massive 'damage' that is done by this practice.
