Yet another example of climate data fakery:

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/11/25/uh-oh-raw-data-in-new-zealand-tells-a-different-story-than-the-official-one/

I do give collectivists credit, creating a whole fake science movement
to justify an attempt to roll back decades of human progress was
certainly inventive.

There's no way they can get away from this one. These aren't
interpretations that are being massaged and faked, instead it's the
raw data that is being faked. The very data that everybody looks at
to determine if the globe is warming.

A friend of mine is a professor of climatology. As part of his first
year course, he has a debate between the AGW "skeptics" and the
students arguing from the course material.

What this tells me is that both of you think you've debunked the
science when neither of you could pass a first year course on the
subject.

Which makes you a pair of morons.

It doesn't matter if the earth is warming this week or cooling. We
all know it goes through long cycles. We also know that man has
polluted the hell out of this planet and altered the entire ecosystem.

The sooner we start doing things that are beneficial to the planet
and mankind - the sooner we will start benefiting from it. Curtailing
the use of fossil fuels should be the number one priority for the US
and it might even keep us out of some future conflict globally.
Making companies stop polluting and being green can only help us and
buying from China promotes polluting - therefore we should be doing
things to promote US manufacturing and creativity.

Promoting alternate energy sources should be the number one priority
for BO - even ahead of the health insurance debacle. Getting us out
of places like Iraq should be right up there in priority.

I could go on ...

What a tool. Anyone with a fundamental understanding of botany,
climatology and statistics can tell this is an analysis skewed by a
type of faith that elevates superstition over logic and science.

If anyone wants to read a decent rebuttal to this nonsense, look here:

http://hot-topic.co.nz/nz-sceptics-lie-about-temp-records-try-to-smear-top-scientist/#more-3622

Why does Gary delve into matters he has no understanding of anyway?
Political agenda maybe? But, of course! The guy didn't even have a
basic understanding of natural selection. Moreover, he doesn't
understand that a "theory" in the scientific world carries much more
weight than what the normal guy on the street considers a theory.
Global warming is no longer a hypothesis. It has been accepted as
scientific theory through substantial peer review. That's as close as
you can get to a natural law. Perhaps Gary doesn't understand this
process and prefers propaganda to make his world more secure. But
when he actually tries to come off as educated on this? Well, I have
to step in. Here we have a guy who claims that "natural selection" is
not true. Duh! As I said to this numbskull before:

"Just about all molecular, paleontological and taxonomic evidence,
taking
into account both homologous and divergent properties, has backed up
Darwin's ideas regarding natural selection. We also have phylogenetic
reconstruction technology available to us, which is really closing the
door on this chapter. If you believe otherwise, be specific. Save me
the bullshit too. Open a damn Biology textbook and get to work."

I'm still waiting.

Hey Gary,

Just wondering if you had second thoughts about posting that load of
garbage about climate readings from New Zealand. Have you done more
reading and determined that your source was incorrectly squashed by
the host of science reporting that came afterward, or are you willing
to admit that you might have been taken in by a bit of propaganda from
the "anti global warming" wing.

I mean, it makes it hard to take you seriously when you call people
who believe in global warming "collectivists" if you're not willing
and take a stand that doesn't tow it's own party line, don't you
think??

Btw, I wouldn't dream of asking Goldberg to own up to wacky things
he's said (we've all seen how poorly he's done thanks to branden...),
but you strike me as a thinking person, and I'm hopeful you have some
integrity to go along with the intellect.

And for the record, this article describes my own position fairly
closely:

anything. What Gary will probably do is give you a load of nothing and
then tell you how he's really an open minded centrist and isn't it a

Sam Weber: Why does what you just said strike me as a massive

Michael: Don't knock rationalization...I don't know anyone who could get
