Global Warming Follies

Somebody get Reverend Algore on the phone! Despite what the alarmists told us, this past October was not the hottest on record. NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies made an oopsie:

GISS's computerised temperature maps seemed to show readings across a large part of Russia had been up to 10 degrees higher than normal. But when expert readers of the two leading warming-sceptic blogs, Watts Up With That and Climate Audit, began detailed analysis of the GISS data they made an astonishing discovery.

The reason for the freak figures was that scores of temperature records from Russia and elsewhere were not based on October readings at all. Figures from the previous month had simply been carried over and repeated two months running.

Hey! When you can't get real data, just make stuff up! Here is the entire global warming farce summed up in one ridiculous event. I hope these guys aren't working on shuttle launches; our astronauts would end up on Mars...

Here's what October really looked like, but when your head is stuck so far up your statistical models it's near impossible to see reality:

Across the world there were reports of unseasonal snow and plummeting temperatures last month, from the American Great Plains to China, and from the Alps to New Zealand. China's official news agency reported that Tibet had suffered its "worst snowstorm ever". In the US, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration registered 63 local snowfall records and 115 lowest-ever temperatures for the month, and ranked it as only the 70th-warmest October in 114 years.

How much do you want to bet that if their data showed a 10 degree drop in temperatures they would have dug in and found the error immediately? The global warming scientists represent the very worst of advocacy science. Where is the scientific skepticism they constantly employ to tell us there is no God?

There is no god but Gaia, and Algore i$ her profit!
