You repeat slogans from the bumper stickers on AL Gore's CO2 belching limousine.

...The following two graphs show NASA's adjustment to the Santa Rosa, CA, station (which happens to be at the headquarters of NOAA)....

Kevin Trenberth: "The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate."

Michael Mann: "Phil and I have recently submitted a paper using about a dozen NH [northern hemisphere] records that fit this category, and many of which are available nearly 2K back–I think that trying to adopt a time frame of 2K, rather than the usual 1K, addresses a good earlier point that Peck made w/ regard to the memo, that it would be nice to try to "contain" the putative "MWP", even if we don't yet have a hemispheric mean reconstruction available that far back."

Computer code by Keith Briffa to "process" temperature data at CRU:

<'yrloc=[1400,findgen(19)*5.+1904]

'valadj=[0.,0.,0.,0.,0.,-0.1,-0.25,-0.3,0.,-0.1,0.3,0.8,1.2,1.7,2.5,2.6,2.6,2.6,2.6,2.6]*0.75 ; fudge factor

May 2008 email from Phil Jones head of CRU to Michael Mann:

Subject: IPCC & FOI [Freedom of Information request]

Can you delete any emails you may have had with Keith re AR4?
Keith will do likewise. He's not in at the moment - minor family crisis.
Can you also email Gene and get him to do the same? I don't have his new email address.
We will be getting Caspar to do likewise.
I see that CA claim they discovered the 1945 problem in the Nature paper!!
