Hadcrut temperatures are fraudulent, for the Climategate files reveals that no one knows how they were constructed. The Air vent attempts an honest reconstruction: Of course, this reconstruction can only be as good as the data it rests on, which we now know from the Climategate documents directory to be poor. I argue we should throw out all dubious data – which likely means we should rely on proxy indications of temperature for the early part of the century.
The scientific method
When science becomes a priesthood, it is no longer science. Reference to authority is unscientific, indeed antiscientific, a rejection of the principles of science. One must appeal to evidence, not authority. What authority says is not scientific evidence. Independent replication is evidence. If people all over the world have made observations for the last 100 years about temperature, I can’t replicate them; but other people at the time could replicate them. The date at which Lake Winnipesaukee ice goes out, …
No twentieth century warming
The earliest ice outs, and thus the warmest years, were in the 1950s. The warming from 1975 to 1998 is real, but not very large – just a blip in the overall cooling trend from 1950. During the 1950s, Winnipesaukee ice outs were generally around Julian day 100, which is usually April 10. These days, it is around Julian day 107, which is usually April 17 – the ice is taking longer to melt, therefore, these days the weather is …
Merry Christmas
There is a reason that the United States, the most Christian nation in the world, is also the most free nation in the world. And that reason is that of all the deadly superstitions that infest the world, Christianity is the least murderous, the least oppressive, fosters the least hatred and envy, and is responsible for fewer wars and mass murders than any religion of comparable size. And the comparative decency of this belief system is best displayed in the …
Warmism for politicians
If Sarah Palin is so amazingly dumb, how come she gets everything right on a complex issue, and explains it in language that the average voter can understand? Sarah Palin explains climate change, covering every issue, except for the documents directory of the climategate files, in clear, easy to understand language. She makes one minor error, describing “hide the decline†as hiding the decline of temperature, when in fact they were hiding the decline of a proxy for temperature, but …
The extraordinary inanity of nation building
When first I saw slides from this presentation, I assumed them to be parody, but no, they are the real thing. The people planning this war really are this stupid, crazy, and evil.
How bloggers saved the world
The Air Vent tells us that China saved the world, which is true, but China saved the world because of what bloggers did. The enemy plan was to use global warming to roll back science, technology and western civilization.  Copenhagen was to have established a “world climate treaty organization†which would exercise centralized control over all the worlds economies, thereby avoiding that inconvenient embarrassment that ensues whenever socialist economies face comparison with capitalist economies. Someone released the Climategate files. I …
What the climategate files reveal.
The killer directory in the climategate files is not the email directory, but the documents directory, for the documents directory reveals how the graphs of doom were generated. One should only employ the emails directory to illuminate what is documented in the documents directory. The Climategate files reveal that the graphs of doom are irreproducible, for Harry was unable to reproduce them, except by means at best extremely dubious, “So what the hell did Tim do?!!†at worst frankly fraudulent. …
More surface temperature fraud
The Climategate files revealed that the Hadcrut surface temperature series was fraudulent, and cast doubt on the Giss surface temperatures. Small Dead Animals and Watts up with that, and more soon discovered fraud in the Giss surface temperature series, and now fraud in the GHCN series. Which is all the surface temperature series that support global warming. All of three them. Each one is fraudulent. Twentieth century warming has not been replicated. Excluding all temperatures series based on fraud, the …
How “Science†responds to heresy
Australian Climate Madness has a revealing video. The professor refuses to address the question, then the UN goons come out to stop the questions.
