Michael Hammer has found the original uncorrupted GISS US temperature data on John Daly’s web site. Prior to GISS/USHCN perverting the data set in the year 2000, the 1930s was the hottest decade.

The data was originally here : http://www.giss.nasa.gov/data/update/gistemp/graphs/FigD.txt
If you try to go to that page, you get this :
Not Found
The requested URL /gistemp/graphs_v3/FigD.txt was not found on this server
So I went to the web archive, to look for an archived copy of the data on the GISS web site.
http://wayback.archive.org/web/*/http://www.giss.nasa.gov/data/update/gistemp/graphs/FigD.txt
This is what you get there :
Here is what www.giss.nasa.gov robots.txt looks like. Hansen is blocking the web archive from searching GISS data, selected meetings and his publications.

I think you are misreading the word “disallow”. Instead of dis-allow, read it as di-sallow
Sallow = “an unhealthy yellowish color”.
Cowards. Double cowards
Criminal.
I think a FOI request needs to be submitted. Some of the other folders look interesting too.
That’s only for robots. Nothing is hidden when using a browser.

I think you are completely missing the point.
Ok, but you can’t browse a website like a ftp site. A missing link or a typo in the file name and you can’t find the file even if it is there.
Using Google with “gistemp site:www.giss.nasa.gov” reveals 328 results
“meetings+pollution2002 site:www.giss.nasa.gov” reveals 133 results
Was the robots.txt recently put in place?
Have you looked on their ftp site? ftp://ftp.giss.nasa.gov/pub/
Maybe it’s there. This is usually the place for sharing data.
http://www.giss.nasa.gov/data/update/gistemp/graphs/FigD.txt
is on the server linked to
http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v3/FigD.txt
This means that they have used a Symbolic Link for a whole directory or an individual file and I can tell you that the sys admin could have messed up the link or the access permission. I’ve seen this a lot..
It’s a bit strange that the “/data/update/” and the “data/update/gistemp” have a different destination.

The wayback machine and all other internet archives can only archive what their crawlers are allowed to find. Hansen keeps them from archiving versions of his graphs, making it impossible to compare versions of his website later.
You can of course, as a human, regularly go there and save snapshots manually. But you would have to do this over and over again before anything happens in order to be able to prove the manipulations.
I should point out here that there is nothing preventing a web bot from archiving the entire GISS site except the _convention_ of complying with the restrictions laid out in the robots.txt file; if you wanted to obtain an archive of the site, you could obtain the source code to a web bot, remove or comment out either the code that reads the robots.txt file from a site or the code that matches URLs against the list of folders in that file, recompile it, and point it at the GISS website to obtain a complete copy of the site.
The file I am interested in has been deleted.
Reblogged this on Climate Ponderings.
Thanks for this! Last year I looked and looked for it, without success.
However, the data that John Daly archived appears to be newer than the data in the 1999 graph. If you compare the 1934 and 1998 peaks in the 1999 graph, you can see that 1934 was about 0.6 C warmer than 1998.
But in that copy of the data from John Daly’s site, 1934 is only 0.25 C warmer than 1998. (1998 is 4th-warmest, behind 1934, 1921, and 1931.) So, already, by the time that John Daly archived that file, about 0.35 C of cooling had been erased. If anyone knows where to find the earlier version, in which 1934 was about 0.6 C warmer than 1998, as shown in that 1999 graph, I’d be grateful for a copy!
Here’s another version of the data from John Daly’s site. It appears to be from later in year 2000, or perhaps early 2001, and another 0.21 C of warming has been added for the 1934-to-1998 interval, leaving 1934 just 0.04 C warmer than 1998.
Note: In the latest version of the data (and a recent graph), 1934 is 0.078 C cooler than 1998.
When you’ve committed so much social, political, and financial profit in these debased versions of reality, then it no surprise that earlier (honest and clean) versions are hidden and protected, or even erased.
Let’s hope that more knowledgeable and far smarter sources than ourselves will expose Hansen in all his glorious detail.

I believe Steven Goddard has given motivated readers here just the incentive needed to do so. Thank you Steve.
This link works, but maybe it’s not what you’re looking for?

Nope, wrong URL. That is the corrupted data.
I’m not sure which vintage this is: http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v3/Fig.D.txt. But if you compare it to http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/graphs_v2/Fig.D.txt. There are changes.
If a government worker deliberately (or even “mistakenly”) tampers with public records information, that person is a criminal. I seem to recall a certain WH occupant resigning over a mere 18 minutes of “mistakenly erased reel-to-reel tape”. James “Algore’s Sockpuppet” is light years ahead of that certain WH occupant, when it comes to criminally destroying and/or altering public records. We can only hope, for the sake of our children’s futures, that Hansen and the rest of his criminal cohorts are stopped and imprisoned before they completely destroy not only our economy (and take away our individual liberties), but the rest of the world’s.
Thank you for all you do, Mr. Goddard. You will go down in history as one of the great defenders of truth and science.
