Interesting, very interesting....
From the Washington Times comes more evidence that global warming is just a lot of hot air. Yes, I did actually just say that, and I apologize.
A slight miscalculation on the part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration previously led to the identification of 1998 as the hottest year on record. NASA has corrected their data and now says that the hottest year recorded is in fact 1934. Not only that, but the list of the five hottest years on record is as follows: 1934, 1921, 1931, 1998, 2006. Five years, four decades, and skewed towards the beginning of the last hundred years rather than the end. And the temperatures in the warm years of the 1920s, '30s, and '50s were a few tenths of a degree higher than the supposedly dangerous temperatures of the last two decades.
If you do a google search, by the way, you'll notice that only one major newspaper bothered to do a story on this - and even that was only an editorial. But if that makes you think that it might not be accurate, check out this graph, direct from the NASA website:
As you can see, the five-year mean also peaked during the 1930s.
I'll say it, just for laughs...I wonder why the New York Times didn't pick this up.

I'm no climatologist, but if you slap a straightedge on that mean
anomoly, it trends upward. There are cycles and cycles within cycles. So, the arguments. If this were a simple dataset maybe even the scientists could agree on our current 'window'. Small wonder weather measurement and prediction gave birth to the chaos theory!!

I'm not saying it's conclusive proof of anything. But neither is ANY data that gets presented in the global warming arena, so I find it interesting the data they DO choose to report.
Please bring the following to the notice of your friends and online contacts.

If you do so, it should increase the number of visitors to you blog (perhaps dramatically), as well as give you links to pro-Republican sites. You can also accomplish these things by visiting my blog: http://camp2008victorya.blogspot.com/ and clicking on the "Elephant" logo. Thanks.
