Global temperatures have been flat to down for the last 16 years, but Hansen is undaunted. He is warming recent temperatures at a rate of one degree per century, which is faster than the hockey stick.

“He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.”
Grandfather David has been capturing GISS data from archives and plotted how the 1880s have been progressively cooled over the last seven years. Goebbels had nothing over Hansen when it came to embellishing the big lie.

Hurricane Audrey brought 145 MPH winds to Texas and Louisiana and wiped many cities off the map. CO2 was at very safe levels in 1957 – perhaps Al Gore is looking for a repeat performance?
1957 also brought the most severe drought in New Mexico’s history, which is where I was living. My mother says that there was no green to be seen anywhere that year.

Luis Suarez is stomping people’s feet every weekend. This week it was David Jones of Wigan.
My foot got stomped twice in my match yesterday, the first one being malicious. People who do that should be banned. There is no place for it in soccer.

“I’m scared,” the lean, intense scientist (Paul Ehrlich) told an interviewer. “I have a teenage daughter whom I love very much. I know a lot of young people, and their world is being destroyed – my world is being destroyed. I’m 37, and I’d like to live to be 67 in a reasonably pleasant world, not die in some kind of holocaust in the next decade.”
Ehrlich has lived to be almost 80 in a very pleasant world. Delusional fear has ruined his life and he is now a bitter old man. Perhaps he will do better in his next life.
Let’s see if Obama can connect the dots.
