For most of its first century the New York Times was the paragon of American journalism. Today, Pravda West is politically a second rate replacement for the Daily Worker; and otherwise no more than a provincial rag catering to Manhattan's upper west side. As such, suppression of the facts on terrestrial temperature trends is to be expected.
And it is also to be expected that other information contrary to Punch Sulzberger's biases would be suppressed. As it is in so many fields.

Stranger Heh, A few months ago I got a cold call trying to sell me a subscription to the NYT, I politely declined but the person was very pushy and I ended up sharing my opinion of the rag, which is much like yours with the poor salesperson. I'm glad I don't have that job! I would work at McDonald's first. (Sorry to any MickyD's people out there... But... Look on the bright side, at least you are not peddling the NYT!) |

Whoever built this fence seems to have a sense of humor as it certainly is not containing the Arctic warmth in my area.

It's only a two strand barbed wire, with posts on 32' centers. What do you expect, Sigurdur?

Stranger Back in the 60's the boyz from Amarillo used to say that was the only thing between them and the northpole. Musta bin cause it was jumping it all the time. We had global warming back then too ya know! |

We also had "global warming" in the 1930's. That was probably the warmest decade in modern history, even if the met office and NASA do want to deny it. Just NASA wants to say Solar Cycle 24 will top out with a smoothed SSN of 155, when we will be fortunate to achieve 55.
Somehow, building a reputation through provable results has been turned inside out. To building claims through publicity instead of results.

Sigurdur, would you please repair your fence. We had a high today of 29 and a low of 19 here in S. Texas, and with a frozen well, I am having to haul water for the cows. 2 to 4 inches of snow is predicted tomorrow and with no thaw until Saturday I wish Al Gore would get the hell out of Texas.

I patched that fence a few times, but seems the patches musta been made without the correct model. Oh well....it will warm up again.
