After an extremely long, tedious, cold winter and very late ice melt, after Bad to worse: US economy shrank more than expected in Q1 ‘due to unusually cold winter’, what do we have now, in this summer which is colder than normal? Why, endless attacks on anyone pointing out that global warming is dead! Instead, ever more hysterical predictions of how we are going to roast to death proliferate. IPCC : That Medieval Warm Period We Used To Believe In Wrecks Our Story, Lets Get Rid Of It | Real Science: a web site run by a right winger that does real research has caused a flurry due to what I think are very credible charges that NOAA and foreign climatologists have been ‘cooking the books’ by eliminating mainly rural temperature stations and readjusting the past to make it colder while adjusting the present to make it hotter. This is a huge conspiracy to convince people, despite obvious weather to the contrary, that we are getting hotter when the opposite is happening.
