According to Mikey, global warming kicked in with a vengeance when CO2 rose from 280 PPM to 280.1 PPM in 1860. That extra tenth of a PPM threw the climate right over the edge.
It is a little surprising that the National Academy Of Sciences And NCAR both were unaware of this dramatic warming in 1975 (when they both thought the climate was dramatically cooling) but Mikey is just a super smart guy whose intelligence supersedes all previous science.
It is also a little surprising that the IPCC didn’t know about this dramatic warming in 1990, but Mikey is the world’s smartest guy, and the court has ruled that no one has the right to question him. Mikey’s preeminence as a scientist supersedes the First Amendment in the eyes of the court.
For a guy who can calculate the global average temperature 500 years ago to a tenth of a degree from three trees, determining a tipping point to 0.1 ppm CO2 is childs play. Magic Mikey?
Those three trees were mystical trees and they told Mikey what the global temperature was. Mikey just had to read the “Tree Leaves” to find out what was the “Tipping Point” for CO2. It is the new Science, Tree Leaves reveal so much more than “Tea Leaves”!
Mike, the scary thing is he probably actually believes his computer code is actually doing that and he is just so brilliant for coming up with it. His handlers know better – that is why Magic Mike is just a Useful Idiot. His delusions have caused him to believe he is much more important than he is…….being on a mission to save the world will do that.
YEP!
I have been watching the situation since 05 at CA. I actually tried to talk to him at RC a couple of times.
Steven is just unable to grasp the technical complexity of the treemometers … just sour grapes that he isn’t “the chosen one” who has brought enlightenment to the world of climastrology.
Using his jedi mind tricks Mann can accomplish more in moments than us mere mortals can do in years.
According to Mann, No self respecting scientist would graft a temperature record onto a proxy record! What you display is either an illusion or was produced by a fraudulent person only claiming to be a scientist!

No researchers in this field have ever, to our knowledge, “grafted the thermometer record onto” any reconstruction. It is somewhat disappointing to find this specious claim (which we usually find originating from industry-funded climate disinformation websites) appearing in this forum.
Silly me! I forgot! The red temperature record is “Just” showing the temperature record along with the proxy reconstruction! Thinking it is grafted is only an illusion.
