Subject: RE: BS: Where's the Global Warming
You post a chart of change rates. The links I posted show measured or calculated temperatures. Apparently the two datasets do not agree. Your first chart (regarding temp change) do not go past 1950, apparently--hard to tell exactly from the resolution. In any case, why do you suppose the two are so different in scaling of the last twenty decades? That's the critical region. It escapes me why you assert my references constitute not bothering to check.

Anyway, the point is that we have conflicting datasets. I don't have the time to drill down and investigate who got what data and who paid for it.

And I note that the same directory from which you draw your graphs DOES have a direct temperature graph. It's at http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~kagan/phy367/P367_articles/GreenHouseEffect/globtemp.bmp and draws on the IPCC information.
