   Those records from the 1930’s Steve aren’t reliable because peoples brains were smaller back then.

     It is difficult to imagine any time when people were stupider than they are now.

       My theory is that this sort of thing happens in cycles and we’re near the peak of the stupid cycle right now.

         And our survey says that you are 97% correct.

   Steven,

   The official high temperature record recognized by NCDC for Alaska is 100°F June 27, 1915 at FORT YUKON.

   Here is a link to records for each state.

   The alarmists are the true deniers. They deny that weather was hotter 100 years ago.

   The “unofficial” starting temperature of the ice cube in my Pimms No.1 cup, is at -20 degrees, which ties the record for the last three ice cubes, that I had in my last three tipples of the beverage, although this isn’t the absolute record. My grandfather once reported a temperature of -22 degrees in a brief flirtation with a Pimms No.2 cup. Sadly the No.2 cup (Scotch Whiskey Based) is no longer available, at least officially.

   Steve … what I don’t understand is why he hasn’t blocked you? I was blocked after one comment on his page a few months ago. Now, anything I comment is immediately deleted.
