Climate experts claim that melting glaciers are proof of global warming, because they lack the science skills most people pick up in kindergarten.
Glaciers melt during interglacial periods (i.e. last 20,000 years) because more ice melts every year than accumulates. When this reverses, we are in an ice age.
According to Hansen, the years around 1910 were the coldest on record, yet Swiss glaciers were rapidly melting.
Jimbo put together this list of extreme weather in 1936. If we had one tenth of this now, progressives would demand immediate world communism.

Pretty soon we have a population educated well enough to defend themselves against the war being waged on their intellects, freedom and pocketbooks.
Arsène Wenger celebrated his 1,000 match as manager, with the worst thrashing of his career – at Stamford Bridge. But the big question is – will Abramovich get slammed with anti-Putin sanctions?
Due to the lack of actual extreme weather (record low tornadoes and hurricanes in the US) climate charlatans now describe mild weather as extreme.
NOAA declared 2012 to be the most extreme year in US history, based almost entirely on mild winter and spring temperatures, which they double counted as mild minimum and maximum temperatures.
The Weather Channel also described the record low tornado count of April 2013 as “extreme”
From record-breaking snow, cold and rainfall to a tornado extreme that may surprise you, April 2013 has been packed full of wild weather.
Children just won’t know what an honest educator is.
A few weeks ago, some stalker (named Brandon) claiming to be a skeptic was attacking me, saying that my data alteration graphs were incorrect because of how I chose to normalize the data. Had he passed high school algebra, he would have known that the slope of a line is independent of the offset, but here is a quick primer.
The graph below shows Hansen 1999 in blue, and current GISS in red. The graphs are normalized to the five year mean of the most recent common years, and show how they have cooled the past by almost 0.4C, just since 1999.
In order to fool simple minded people like Brandon, NOAA/NASA do a nature trick. The graph below shows the two graphs normalized to an anomaly of zero. Note how they cleverly split the tampering between almost -0.2C in the 1880’s, and almost +0.2C in the late 1990’s. This creates the illusion that their tampering isn’t so bad. But it still adds up to almost 0.4C, and is just a way to hide the magnitude of their data crimes.
Using a common baseline of zero is meaningless mathematically, because they have cooled past temperatures during the baseline period. In order to see the magnitude of the tampering, the best methodology is to normalize the most recent five year mean temperatures, as in the top graph.
Someone asked me yesterday if I am sure my measurements of NOAA/NASA data tampering are correct.

I will let you judge that for yourself. The graph below shows my calculated US temperatures in blue, on top of Hansen’s 1999 US temperature graph in red – normalized to the most recent common years. Other than the much smaller USHCN V1 data tampering in the NASA graph, my calculated temperatures are identical to Hansen’s 1999 version.
In 1996, CSU’s Bill Gray predicted weak cooling for the next 20-30 years.
His forecast was spot on.
Hurricanes spiked shortly after Bill made his forecast.
Bill’s reward for extreme competence and forecasting accuracy, was to be ostracized by the climate science community and have his funding cut off by Al Gore. (Meanwhile, people like James Hansen have received huge amounts of funding and acclaim for spreading junk science and disastrously poor predictions.)
Bill Gray is a man of unwavering principle, and has self-funded his efforts to get the truth out about global warming for decades. Bill’s wife Nancy (who passed away in 2001) was mayor of Fort Collins in the early 1980’s, and was largely responsible for setting up the great set of bike trails which I use several times every day.
During the ice age scare of 1973, there was almost no Great Lakes ice on March 21

Since then, the planet has heated out of control and the Great Lakes now have 77% ice cover
