And you will notice that nowhere on your chart is there a list of temperatures. It jsut says how far off the mean it was. The "appropriate" mean for the yaer determined by a simulation algorithm. Simulations are prone to researcher expectation, something controlled for in most other scientific endavors. Sadly, not so much in climatology.
Yes, doesn't include estimates form ice core samples, nor measured gasses, and the head of NASA's glopbal wamring studies has been caught with his pants down fudging the numbers more than once.
So... Despite your propensity to continuously argue as to whether global warming is real or not, can't you all agree that continuing to pollute the atmosphere at the rate we are is a bad thing?
Or are you simply trying to argue that if global warming isn't a man-made phenomena, we should be allowed to continue pumping out pollution under the guise that it really has no bearing on global warming?
Cold as hell here, bring that warming on.

I stopped at this one. It's simply not true. This is just more scare tactics similar to the bailout BS. All of it aimed at taking money out of our pockets and putting it into the pockets of someone else.
