    Message to Brute and Falhaar

    Sorry for cutting in to your exchange with Falhaar, who wrote: “And I don't know where you're getting your ‘global temperature remains flat’ data from, but I'd be curious to see your source.”

    The source, Falhaar, are all those pesky thermometers out there, even the ones next to asphalt parking lots and AC exhausts.

    The four temperature records all show a flat to slight cooling trend from 1998 to today (or from 2001, if you don’t want to start the trend with the all-time record ENSO year 1998).

    I’ll link the four records separately, so they don’t get hung up in the spam filter of this site.

    Read ‘em and weep (or rejoice).
