   They are living in denial.

   In 10 years time the above article might be referenced by skeptics just as “snowfalls are now just a thing of the past.”

   Ya, there sure are human fingerprints all over it. Take a look at all them over the GISTemp adjustments.

   Steve,

   I may be wrong, but according to my (admittedly weak) math skills, 2001-2011 is not white 25 years.

   I do love how you sometimes highlight the actual part of a link that limits the point of your posts, however.

     This is really complicated Tony. If the second half of a period has a negative slope, is the trend showing an “increasing rate of warming?”

   Steve,

   this is a newspaper article. If you want to show the slope from various measured sources from over the past 25 years you could do so.
   If you want to only show information that supports your ideology, you can continue to only post information that reinforces that.
   You could also point out that all sources show increased temperature change in the last 25 years, and question whether the last 10 might indicate that the rate is not in fact increasing.
   On he other hand you could show that there are certain proxy records that actually show the temp has declined at an increasing rate over the last 25 years. There are many other options open to you as well

     “increased temperature change”

     Nonsense. That is the second derivative – which is clearly negative from the HadCRUT graph. You really have no idea what you are saying.
