Thanks all. I've tried IceFisher's links in Firefox, Chrome and M$ Edge. All give their own versions of "timed out". Can't see anything in security settings. I have the same issue with three laptops, my "smart" phone and a tablet. Currently looking at my router ..... will report back. Sig's on the right track, I think. It's the government, they have me on a denier list. It's a miracle! Unisys is back and the only thing I did to the router was a reboot. This failure to communicate with Unisys has happened before, came good mysteriously and may have been fixed then by a router reboot I'll know what to try next time. Of course, we all know a future reboot won't fix it, don't we.

Invest in wool! Wool keeps you warmer even when damp. Combine with rain gear to keep it from getting soaked. Wool has hollow fibers that work very well. If you are soaked though there is a good avenue for heat to travel through the water. If you are dry or only damp the water path for heat loss is either not there or very thin. I say invest in Sheep! Democrats have been doing that for ages. Maybe the wool has been a little thinner in recent years.

Many years ago I predicted that if the CO2 atmospheric concentration continued to grow at the then current rate, the record high 1998 global temperature as measured by satellite would not be surpassed before the year 2037. The reasoning was that I believed that global temperatures would be flat from 2007 until 2037.
The global satellite temperatures in 2016 broke the 18-year old 1998 temperature record by 0.02C.
CO2 atmospheric concentrations for the 10 years prior to 2016 grew at an average of 0.54% per year, significantly above the 0.41% for the 10 years prior to 1998.

I'd rest my case if I were you Duwayne.

Using basic stats, 2016 and 1998 are in a dead heat.............

Funny the Pacific 'naturals' swung positive as China's outputs reduced. A combination of rapid cleaning of outputs and drop in production/consumption seems to go a long way! In all seriousness there are enough papers out there looking at the impacts on PDO/ENSO from the loss of the Asian Brown cloud with outlooks going for stronger, longer PDO positives and a predominance, if not near permanent presence, of nino? I'm not going for a Nino this summer ( 2018/19 for me!) but I'm not going to discount a 'Faux Nino' with Wider Pacific positive anoms ( enhanced by the loss of 'dimming') bleeding into the regions over summer ( the way they did to squish the promised Nina?)

We have looked at spurious correlations before GW you will need to produce a viable mechanism include all the other users of coal

Quarterly update on my long-standing global temperature prediction:
It's been 10 years since I predicted that the global temperature average for 2007 through 2037 would be the same as the 2007 "trend" temperature determined from a least-squares trend of the 1977 through 2007 period.
The Hadcrut 4 anomalies for December 2016 are now in and we have data taking us one-third of the way through the prediction period.
The average global temperatures as measured by satellites (both RSS and UAH) so far have been 0.02C below the prediction. The average global temperatures as estimated from surface thermometers using the Hadcrut4 anomalies so far have been 0.03C above the prediction.
Using an average of the satellite and surface measurements the global temperatures are right at the predicted level.

Using an average of the satellite and surface measurements the global temperatures are right at the predicted level. In twenty more years, if you are right, where will that leave us? If CO2 continues to go up ... as it likely will ... and if solar output (across all spectrums) is at a lower average ... as it very well may be ... what will we conclude? The warmists will say ... see? I told you so. CO2 is bad. We must stop it or we'll all fry when the sun returns to normal. Tax those btu's. The solar crowd will say ... you idiots. If we'd listened to you we'd all have frozen to death. Shovel more coal! Kind of like where we are today. Are you sure you want to be right?

We are in the middle of atmospheric changes to the way water vapour is transported around the planet. The rapid reduction of Sulphate/particulate pollution ( by Asia) is leading to more upper Trop. water vapour travelling into the far north of the n.Hemisphere ( check the past 2 winters over the Arctic Basin). Water Vapour is a very potent GHG but it had not populated to the upper levels of the troposphere. Due to reduced Dimming it is now running to catch up leading to 'atmospheric rivers' becoming more common place ( not just the pineapple express!!!) around the hemisphere. This will continue to ramp up as China cleans up its act.
As a secondary impact the full potential of current GHG forcings will also begin to be felt ( NASA , back in the mid noughties, told us up to 50% the warming potential of ~CO2 was being lost to the flip side of fossil fuel burning, global 'dimming') as we have seen since 2014?
It appears that the Southern hemisphere is also seeing impacts ( via cross polar Strat. issues?) with Chili posting new 'record warm' temps smashing the old max by over 3c!!!!
