Ah, let's see KAVEMAN, because the POINT is regarding the 15 year or so PAUSE that you and other's here seem to keep DENYING exists.


Want to earn $100? Show where I denied the so-called pause.


It's either a hundred bucks, or you are a liar. What's it gonna be?

Excellent posts this morning by Malemute and Bruce!


Did you know that there always has been and always will be a certain amount of hypocrisy?
In order to prevent hypocrisy, humans will have to go extinct.
to summarize:
One person didn't do their share - - so nobody should.

Equally fine logic in the name of consistency:

Someone in Vegas has a green lawn -- so no one should ever conserve water.
Jane once had a bonfire and made a s'more -- burn down the entire Amazon.
Cain once lit a match -- so now Able is justified in burning tires to heat his mansion.
Somebody lied -- everyone should.
Someone else is rich -- 1) eliminate capitalism or 2) we should all just rape and plunder.
Some parents mistreat their kids -- 1) forbid pregnancy or 2) all kids should start work 7/24 at age 4.
A capitalist exploited the workers -- we need more slavery.
Some food got contaminated - - everyone should grow their own food.
Something is toxic - - all manufacturing should be banned.
A mine caused pollution -- each bushel of ore should be inspected 17 times.
There are some bad regulations -- all regulations are thrown out.
Bill once rode on a diesel bus - - Sam is justified in taking a helicopter to work.
Tracy once drank from a disposable container -- so all recycling is worthless.
DT has a teak table - - so all old growth should be cut down.
A cop shot someone without enough cause - - so we don't need any police.
An Asian person is rich -- so all global trade is forbidden.
Leo is in a fancy car -- so let's build 1000 coal plants.
Green power killed 1000 birds - - so let's build 1000 coal plants.
Someone dumped trash - - I shall dump 1000 tons of trash.
One judge is crooked -- we don't need no judges.
JW drives poorly -- so all private cars are outlawed.
Someone has a gas guzzler -- everyone should drive their own bus, towing a trailer of toys.
Some people don't make good soldiers -- so in a war we should just surrender.
Some students disrupt classrooms -- so all schools should be closed.
A discouraging word was heard -- the skies should be smoggy all day.
Some people are trolls -- we need to censor the internet.
Someone photobombed a page -- I will photobomb twice per day.
One denier misunderstands a lot -- all deniers should misread everything.
One person thinks the ocean creates energy -- everyone should go insane.
Some people misuse their rights -- burn the constitution.
A store sold me a bad apple -- everyone should cheat and steal.
Somewhere there is a welfare queen -- all charity is worthless.
Bill Gates has a big house -- his charities are worthless.
Warren Buffet is rich -- his statement on tax rates is invalid.
George Soros is rich and suggests how to improve markets -- all markets should be run by Goldman.
Bernie Madoff seemed like a nice guy in person - - the SEC always does a fine job.
Raj used insider stock information -- all equities are outlawed.
Nixon wasn't 100% evil -- Idi Amin / Pol Pot are much more consistent leaders.
Sarah and Michelle often don't make sense -- all spoken communication shall consist of smiles and clapping.
One person thinks surface temperature trend of the last 12 years can predict the next 100 years -- all science is forbidden.
This post is not as elegant as Shakespeare -- all written communication is forbidden.
Some people don't follow every line in the sacred book -- must forbid religion.
There's a religious terrorist out there somewhere -- all religious people should be put to the stake.
A route has an unneeded bolt -- all routes should be sport bolted.
Someone left more than footsteps, -- so all wilderness should be closed to people.
A hypocrite failed to be hypocritical one day - hmmm

Did you know that whether or not Henry Paulson or Tim Geithner are hypocrites, does not change what society should do about global warming?
Did you know that Leo and Al are not the leaders of Climate Science, merely part time spokesmen?
Did you know that in order to study ice cores in glaciers, scientists burn fossil fuels to get there?
that in order to testify for the clean air act in the early 70s, people actually flew to Washington DC?
that in order to put climate science satellites in orbit, greenhouse gases are emitted?
that in order to write this post, greenhouse gases are emitted?
that for every bit of hot air from deniers, greenhouse gases are emitted?


By refusing to be part of the solution,
you are going to get a worse solution than you would if you participated.
Earmarks, loopholes, and special interest games will be added in order to get enough votes, just like most new bills.

Don't ask questions, if you're not going to check for the answers.

I did check, the answer isn't there. That's why I keep asking you to post a link to your answer, because I know you can't.


And, let us know when you find Cowtan and Way ;-)

Show me where you once agreed with the 15 or so year PAUSE/HIATUS, KAVEMAN, and I will confess to being a liar.

CRUNCH!

Yet the temps have remained steady for the past 15 or so years.



Okay, smart guy. Tell us what's gone on with global temps over the last 15 years. More global warming? Maybe global cooling?

Tell us. In your own words.

Actually, to clarify, only 2% of the weighted/prorated total has paused. (atmosphere)
The main 93%, the OCEAN, has continued to warm.
And 2%, the ICE, has continued to melt. (land is the other 2%)

There may be a debate on climate change amongst the radical right, but that really doesn't matter. The real debate is over. Climate change is real. Humans are accelerating it.
Those that deny it should be ignored and defeated at every turn.

Consciousness is the actual control knob of Climate Change.

The minute one does not dovetail their actions with nature the climate will immediately change ......

    The Chief

You were talking about the pause in temperature. "Steady" is the word you used for the pause.

You are a liar if you say otherwise.


Yes, steadily being the hottest years on record.

I too was talking about the "pause." Yes is the answer to the question.

NOW... you have yet to post anything I have ever posted on this thread that flat out denies the earth is warming.


Why should I The Chief? Did I claim you denied the Earth is warming?
Are you getting ready to tell another lie?

It's now updated through July 2014 but is kept in a secret location where only people with an Al Gore decoder ring, or a brain of their own, can find it.

Good point. 3 words in google and clicking on the first link is to difficult for some people. 2 words and the second link also worked for me.

But google works differently in different parts of the world so I guess that the someone don't want sketch to find that data. It is probably the lack of the decoder ring.

And still no answers... which you said you would post.

Yes, as soon as you post an answer to my question, or a link to where you said you answered it. You keep saying you posted an answer, but I don't see it.



Did you ever find a link for The Cowtan & Way Index?


You mean this (from the link I posted above):

Everyone agrees that we can’t predict the long-term response of the climate to ongoing CO2 rise with great accuracy.


And this is where Sketch claims he doesn't want to talk about "accuracy." Is he a broken record or what.
