I’ve been sitting at the bar tonight in Burlington, Onario, watching the Canadian women’s hockey team massacre Norway.
Temperatures here have been running about 7C below normal, and I am reminded of the unprecedented heating of Mann and Marcot.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Hi Steven,
Initially I was puzzled by Pachauri’s admission of no warming trend for 17 years. Being cautious, I only make a 15-year claim, and freely admit that there was some piddling warming up through 1998. Now I understand his motive.
As your graph shows, there’s been a nascent cooling trend in recent years. But it would be premature to make that a conversation-stopper. The slightly longer timeline would delay the statistical significance of the apparent cooling trend–assuming that it continues. In other words, Pachi is trying ‘to get ahead of the story’.
Sticking his foot in the door like the snake oil saleman he is for future endeavors. Ya know keeping it open fer the next round so to speak.
