I’m unaware of any statistically valid analysis supporting the claim of a widespread sampling bias among climatolgists in general. By you own admission, ED, easily verified by visiting the referenced webpage, you have not done this, but rather relabeled the graphics from the wikipedia article “global warming” and other sources. Your data is not actually from thermometer measurements recorded personally by you, doesn’t agree with public sources such as the NASA GISS station data for Toledo/Expres, or, I’m fairly certain, contain any actual data about bikinis from Wal-Mart, or women wearing them.

In short, you’ve written a bit of humorous satirical fiction, admitted to it, then, oddly, claimed that it’s not fictional. I fail to see how this serves to do anything but confuse serious discussion about climatology.
I attempted to make a silly argument that was logically thought out that would also mirror current thinking on AGW. My goal was to illustrate the absurdity and flaws in logic that surround current pop-global warming theory.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
